A Tropical Storm Warning means that tropical storm conditions are
expected somewhere within the warning area.
Interests elsewhere in west-central Mexico should monitor the
progress of Lidia.
For storm information specific to your area, please monitor
products issued by your national meteorological service.
DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
Satellite imagery indicates that the eye of Lidia has made landfall
along the coast of west-central Mexico near Las Penitas in the state
of Jalisco around 550 PM MDT (2350 UTC) with maximum winds estimated
to be near 140 mph (220 km/h).
At 600 PM MDT (0000 UTC), the center of Hurricane Lidia was located
on the coast near latitude 20.1 North, longitude 105.5 West. Lidia
is moving toward the east-northeast near 16 mph (26 km/h). A
slightly faster east-northeastward motion is expected through
tonight. On the forecast track, the center of Lidia will move inland
over west-central Mexico tonight and Wednesday morning.
Maximum sustained winds are near 140 mph (220 km/h) with higher
gusts. Lidia is a category 4 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson
Hurricane Wind Scale. Rapid weakening is expected as Lidia moves
inland tonight and Wednesday.
Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 30 miles (45 km) from
the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 140
miles (220 km).
The estimated minimum central pressure is 942 mb (27.82 inches).
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
Key messages for Lidia can be found in the Tropical Cyclone
Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDEP5 and WMO header WTPZ45 KNHC
and on the web at hurricanes.gov/text/MIATCDEP5.shtml
RAINFALL: Lidia is expected to produce rainfall totals of 4 to 8
inches with local maxima of 12 inches through Wednesday across the
state Nayarit, southern portions of the state of Sinaloa, and
coastal portions of the state of Jalisco in western Mexico. These
rains will likely produce flash and urban flooding, along with
possible mudslides in areas of higher terrain near the coast.
STORM SURGE: A dangerous storm surge is expected to produce
significant coastal flooding near and to the south of where Lidia
made landfall. Near the coast, the surge will be accompanied by
large and destructive waves.
WIND: Hurricane conditions are occurring in portions of
west-central Mexico within the hurricane warning area. Tropical
storm conditions are occuring in portions of the tropical storm
warning areas.
SURF: Swells generated by Lidia will affect the west coast of
Mexico and the Baja California peninsula for 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.

Hurricane Lidia Discussion Number 31
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP152023
300 PM MDT Tue Oct 10 2023
Lidia became a major hurricane around 1800 UTC and has continued to
intensify since that time. The Air Force Hurricane Hunters recently
found that the minimum pressure has fallen significantly to 950 mb.
In addition, the maximum 700-mb flight-level wind measured by the
aircraft was 116 kt, which adjusts to about 105 kt at the surface.
The maximum SFMR surface wind reported was 108 kt. Based on these
data, the initial intensity is increased to 110 kt. Lidia has
strengthened by a very impressive 50 kt over the past 24 hours.
Although the eye has just become evident in geostationary satellite
images, it has been clearly seen in microwave data for much
of the day. Deep convection has been increasing in coverage and
magnitude, and has become more symmetric during the past few hours.
The outer rain bands of Lidia are beginning to spread across
portions of west-central Mexico, and weather conditions are
expected to steadily worsen into the evening. The center of Lidia
is forecast to make landfall in west-central Mexico later this
evening.
As mentioned above, Lidia has rapidly strengthened over very warm
SSTs and in a favorable upper-level wind pattern during the past day
or so. Since the environmental conditions are not expected to
change, Lidia could reach category 4 strength before it makes
landfall. Rapid weakening is expected once the center moves inland,
and Lidia is forecast to dissipate on Wednesday over the rugged
terrain of central Mexico.
Key Messages:
1. Lidia is expected to make landfall in west-central Mexico as a
major hurricane this evening. Life-threatening hurricane-force
winds are expected within the Hurricane Warning area.
2. Heavy rains from Lidia will likely produce flash and urban
flooding, along with possible mudslides in areas of higher terrain
across the the state of Nayarit, southern portions of the state of
Sinaloa, and coastal portions of the state of Jalisco in western
Mexico.
3. A dangerous storm surge is expected near and to the south of
where the center of Lidia moves onshore along the coast of
west-central Mexico. Near the coast, the surge will be accompanied
by large and destructive waves.
4. Swells from Lidia will cause dangerous surf and rip current
conditions along the west coast of Mexico and the Baja California
peninsula during the next day or so.

RAINFALL: Lidia is expected to produce rainfall totals of 4 to 8
inches with local maxima of 12 inches through Wednesday across the
state Nayarit, southern portions of the state of Sinaloa, and
coastal portions of the state of Jalisco in western Mexico. These
rains will likely produce flash and urban flooding, along with
possible mudslides in areas of higher terrain near the coast.
STORM SURGE: A dangerous storm surge is expected to produce
significant coastal flooding near and to the south of where
the center makes landfall. Near the coast, the surge will be
accompanied by large and dangerous waves.
WIND: Hurricane conditions are expected to reach the warning area
on Tuesday, with winds expected to first reach tropical
storm strength by Tuesday morning, making outside preparations
difficult or dangerous. Preparations to protect life and property
should be rushed to completion. Tropical storm conditions are
expected in the Tropical Storm Warning areas beginning Tuesday.
SURF: Swells generated by Lidia will affect the west coast of Mexico
and the Baja California peninsula for the next couple of days. These

Tropical Storm Max Discussion Number 8
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP162023
400 PM CDT Mon Oct 09 2023
Max is estimated to have made landfall around 1800 UTC just to the
west of Puerto Vicente Guerrero in the Mexican Provence of Guerrero.
Data received from the a Mexican surface observing site at that
location just after the intermediate advisory suggested the
tropical storm might have been a little stronger than initially
assessed, reporting sustained tropical-storm-force winds with a
minimum pressure of 994 mb. Thus, the 18 UTC working best track
intensity was adjusted to 55 kt with a 991 mb pressure. Since that
time, the satellite structure has begun to degrade, likely as the
surface circulation begins to be disrupted by the high rugged
terrain of south-central Mexico. Thus, some weakening is assumed
since that time with the current intensity assessed at 50 kt.
Further rapid weakening is anticipated as the small tropical cyclone
moves further inland, and by this time tomorrow Max is likely to be
little more than a remnant mid-level circulation moving poleward
with enhanced moisture over central Mexico.
The initial motion still appears to be north-northeast at 030/5 kt.
This motion should continue until Max dissipates over the higher
terrain of Mexico. The track guidance following the low-level center
quickly lose the system beyond 12 h, and the updated track forecast
is little changed from the prior one. Even as Max dissipates, its
mid-level remains and larger moisture plume will likely result in
significant upslope rainfall, leading to flash flooding and
mudslides pushing into inland Mexico.
Key Messages:
1. Max is forecast to continue bringing tropical storm conditions
through this evening to portions of the southern coast of Mexico
where a Tropical Storm Warning remains in effect.
2. Heavy rains from Max will likely produce flash and urban
flooding, along with possible mudslides in areas of higher terrain
across the states of Guerrero and Michoacan.

Tropical Storm Lidia Discussion Number 27
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP152023
300 PM MDT Mon Oct 09 2023
Satellite images indicate that Lidia is becoming better organized.
Deep convection is consolidating near the center and it appears that
an inner core is forming. In addition, a large curved band has
developed on the south and east sides of the circulation. The Air
Force Hurricane Hunters investigated Lidia earlier this afternoon
and found that the minimum pressure was quite low, around 985 mb. A
combination of the aircraft flight-level wind and SFMR data support
increasing the wind speed to 60 kt, and is possible that this is
conservative. The aircraft data and recent satellite images
suggest that the center has reformed to the south of the previous
positions.
Since the center of Lidia appears to have reformed, the initial
motion of 065/7 kt is uncertain. Water vapor images show a mid- to
upper-level trough approaching Lidia, and that feature should steer
the storm relatively quickly to the east-northeast toward
west-central Mexico. The main change for this forecast cycle is
associated with Lidia's reformation, which is roughly 1 degree south
of the previous estimates. Based on the initial position
adjustment, the new track forecast lies to the south of the previous
prediction. This forecast is close to the consensus aids and
roughly halfway between the fast GFS solution and the much slower
ECMWF run. Based on the new forecast, Lidia is expected to reach
the coast of Mexico Tuesday afternoon/evening.
Since Lidia appears to be developing an inner core while moving into
conducive environmental conditions, significant strengthening is
forecast. The storm is expected to move over SSTs near 30 C and
into a favorable upper-level wind pattern. The NHC intensity
forecast is similar to the previous one, and is in good agreement
with the hurricane regional models. Rapid weakening is forecast once
Lidia moves inland due to the rugged terrain in west-central Mexico.
Key Messages:
1. Lidia is forecast to strengthen before it reaches west-central
Mexico, and hurricane conditions are expected within the Hurricane
Warning area beginning Tuesday.
2. Heavy rains from Lidia will likely produce flash and urban
flooding, along with possible mudslides in areas of higher terrain
across the the state of Nayarit, southern portions of the state of
Sinaloa, and coastal portions of the state of Jalisco in western
Mexico.
3. A dangerous storm surge is expected near and to the south of
where the center of Lidia moves over the Islas Marias and the coast
of west-central Mexico.
4. Swells from Lidia will cause dangerous surf and rip current
conditions along the west coast of Mexico and the Baja California
peninsula during the next couple of days.
