located near latitude 20.0 North, longitude 108.8 West. Eugene is

Maximum sustained winds have increased to near 50 mph (85 km/h) with 
higher gusts. Some strengthening is expected through early Sunday, 
followed by weakening early next week. Eugene is forecast to 
degenerate to a remnant low by early Tuesday.
 
Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 60 miles (95 km)
from the center.
 
The estimated minimum central pressure is 1000 mb (29.53 inches).
 
 
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
RAINFALL: The outer edges of the rainfall pattern from Eugene may
produce storm total amounts of 1 to 2 inches along sections of the 
southwestern Mexican states of Sinaloa, Jalisco, Nayarit, and
the southern portion of Baja California Sur.
 
SURF: Swells generated by Eugene will affect portions of the coasts
of west-central Mexico and Baja California Sur during 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.
