At 700 AM CDT (1200 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Beatriz was

moving toward the northwest near 13 mph (20 km/h), and this general

to move near or over portions of the coast of southwestern Mexico
through this morning.  Beatriz is then expected to move away from
the west-central coast of Mexico later today into Sunday.
 
Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 60 mph (95 km/h)
with higher gusts.  Continued weakening is expected during the next
couple of days.

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 Colima northwest to Sinaloa and
Durango in association with Beatriz.  This rainfall could lead to
localized flash flooding and mudslides.
 
STORM SURGE:  Coastal flooding is possible in areas of onshore 
winds.  Large, potentially damaging waves are also possible along 
the coast.
 
SURF:  Swells generated by Beatriz are occurring along the 
southwestern coast of Mexico.  These swells are likely to cause 
life-threatening surf and rip current conditions.  Please consult
