DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 1100 PM HST (0900 UTC), the center of Hurricane Linda was located near latitude 17.6 North, longitude 126.4 West. Linda is moving toward the west near 10 mph (17 km/h). A turn toward the west-northwest is expected Tuesday night. Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 90 mph (150 km/h) with higher gusts. Slow weakening is forecast over the next several days, and Linda should remain a hurricane through Wednesday.

The estimated minimum central pressure is 975 mb (28.80 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- SURF: Swells generated by Linda are expected to gradually subside along the western coast of Baja California Sur during the next day or two. However, additional longer-period swells not associated with Linda are expected to reach the coasts of southwestern Mexico and the west coast of the Baja California peninsula tonight and Tuesday, and these swells are likely to continue causing life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next complete advisory at 500 AM HST. $$ Forecaster Roberts
