located near latitude 17.2 North, longitude 108.3 West. Vance is

toward the north is expected through midweek.

from the center.
 
The estimated minimum central pressure is 1003 mb (29.62 inches).

RAINFALL: Through Thursday, Vance is expected to produce 2 to 4 
inches of rain across central and southern Sinaloa, western Durango, 
and northwestern Nayarit, with isolated higher totals of 7 inches 
possible over central and southern Sinaloa. This rainfall may 
produce flooding and mudslides, especially in areas along steep 
terrain.
