DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 200 PM PDT (2100 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Jova was 
located near latitude 22.9 North, longitude 126.1 West. Jova is 
moving toward the northwest near 9 mph (15 km/h).  A northwestward 
motion at a slightly slower forward speed is expected for the next 
day or so. Jova is forecast to slow down further and turn toward the 
west-southwest by late Sunday.
 
Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 50 mph (85 km/h) with 
higher gusts. Additional weakening is likely, and Jova is expected 
to become a remnant low by late Sunday or early Monday.
 
Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 90 miles (150 km)
from the center.
 
The estimated minimum central pressure is 999 mb (29.50 inches).
 
 
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
SURF: Swells generated by Jova are affecting the western coast of
Mexico and are occuring along portions of the coast of California.
These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip
current conditions through the weekend.  Please consult products
from your local weather office.
