On the forecast track, the center of Norma is forecast to approach the west coast of mainland Mexico tonight and move inland within the tropical storm warning area early Monday. Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 60 mph (95 km/h) with higher gusts. Norma is expected to move over the west coast of mainland Mexico as a tropical storm early Monday. Rapid weakening is anticipated once Norma moves inland over mainland Mexico. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 150 miles (240 km) from the center. The estimated minimum central pressure is 990 mb (29.24 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- Key messages for Norma can be found in the Tropical Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDEP2 and WMO header WTPZ42 KNHC and on the web at hurricanes.gov/text/MIATCDEP2.shtml WIND: Tropical storm conditions are ongoing within portions of the tropical storm warning area. RAINFALL: Norma will produce additional rainfall totals of 4 to 6 inches with storm total maxima of 18 inches in and near Sinaloa into Monday. These rains will produce flash and urban flooding, along with mudslides in areas of higher terrain. STORM SURGE: Coastal flooding is possible along the west coast of mainland Mexico within the tropical storm warning area. Near the coast, the coastal flooding will be accompanied by large and dangerous waves. SURF: Swells generated by Norma will continue to affect the coast of southwestern and west-central Mexico and Baja California Sur for the next day or two. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office.
