A Hurricane Warning means that hurricane conditions are expected

36 hours before the anticipated first occurrence of
tropical-storm-force winds, conditions that make outside
preparations difficult or dangerous.  Preparations to protect life
and property should be rushed to completion.
 
A Hurricane Watch means that hurricane conditions are possible
within the watch area, in this case within the next 24 to 36 hours.
 
A Tropical Storm Warning means that tropical storm conditions are
expected somewhere within the warning area within 36 hours.
 
A Tropical Storm Watch means that tropical storm conditions are
possible within the watch area, generally within 48 hours.
 
Interests elsewhere along the west-central coast of Mexico and in 
the southern portion of the Baja California peninsula should monitor 
the progress of this system.  Additional watches or warnings may be 
required on Saturday.
 
For storm information specific to your area, please monitor
products issued by your national meteorological service.
 
 
DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 1000 PM CDT (0300 UTC), the center of Hurricane Beatriz was
located near latitude 18.4 North, longitude 103.9 West. Beatriz is
moving toward the northwest near 13 mph (20 km/h) and this general
motion with a gradual decrease in forward speed is expected through
Saturday night.  On the forecast track, the center of Beatriz is
expected to move near or over portions of the coast of southwestern
Mexico through early Saturday.  Beatriz is then expected to turn
west-northwestward and move away from the west-central coast of
Mexico late Saturday into Sunday.
 
Maximum sustained winds remain near 85 mph (140 km/h) with higher
gusts.  Beatriz is expected to remain a hurricane into early 
Saturday if its center remains just offshore the coast of 
southwestern Mexico.  Weakening is expected later Saturday through 
Monday once Beatriz begins to move away from west-central Mexico.
 
Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 25 miles (35 km) from the
center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 90 miles
(150 km).
 
The estimated minimum central pressure is 992 mb (29.30 inches).
 
 
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND

Key messages for Beatriz 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:  Hurricane conditions are expected within the hurricane
warning area through early Saturday.  Hurricane conditions are 
possible within the hurricane watch area on Saturday.  Tropical 
storm conditions are expected within the tropical storm warning 
area on Saturday, and are possible within the tropical storm watch 
areas Saturday or Saturday night.
 
RAINFALL:  Through Monday, storm total rainfall of 3 to 5 inches, 
with maximum amounts of 8 inches, is expected across portions of 
southern and western Mexico from Michoacan northwest to Sinaloa and 
Durango in association with Hurricane Beatriz.  This rainfall could 
lead to localized flash flooding and mudslides. 
 
STORM SURGE:  A dangerous storm surge is expected to produce
significant coastal flooding in areas of onshore winds.  Near the
coast, the surge will be accompanied by large and destructive waves.
 
SURF: Swells generated by Beatriz are forecast to spread northward
along the southwestern coast of Mexico during the next day or so.
These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip
current conditions.  Please consult products from your local weather
office.
