Hurricane Erick Discussion Number 13
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP052025
900 AM CST Thu Jun 19 2025
Erick made landfall in the municipality of Santiago Pinotepa
Nacional in extreme western Oaxaca, Mexico, around 1130 UTC this
morning with maximum sustained winds estimated to be near 110 kt
(125 mph). It should be noted that the major hurricane's structure
was degrading as it approached the coast. In fact, the eye feature
was not apparent at the landfall time, making the exact location and
time that Erick crossed the coast uncertain. Erick was the earliest
major hurricane landfall in Mexico since records began, and that
includes both the Atlantic and Pacific coasts.
The hurricane has been rapidly weakening since it made landfall.
The inner core appears to be collapsing with cloud tops warming near
the center. The strongest convection is located to the west of the
inner core near and to the south of Acapulco. The initial intensity
is lowered to 75 kt, but there is a high amount of uncertainty
around that value. Continued rapid weakening is forecast as the
system moves northwestward and farther inland, and Erick is expected
to dissipate over the rugged terrain of southwestern Mexico by
tonight.
Although the winds are expected to continue to decrease rapidly,
heavy rains will linger over portions of southern and southwestern
Mexico. So far, there has been a report of about 250 mm (10 in) of
rain in El Marques in Oaxaca, and additional heavy rains are
expected through tonight.
KEY MESSAGES:
1. Erick will continue to produce heavy rainfall across portions of
Southwest Mexico mainly through tonight. Life-threatening flooding
and mudslides are likely, especially in areas of steep terrain.
2. Hurricane-force winds, especially in gusts, will continue for a
couple of more hours in the hurricane warning area.
3. Storm surge could still produce coastal flooding in areas of
onshore winds. The surge will be accompanied by large and
destructive waves.

Hurricane Erick Discussion Number 12
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP052025
300 AM CST Thu Jun 19 2025
Erick is about to make landfall along the southern coast of Mexico.
Its rapid strengthening episode has ended, likely due to the
interaction with land. The eye has become obscured on satellite
imagery, and the intensity is adjusted to 120 kt in agreement with
the latest objective estimates from UW/CIMSS. Erick remains an
extremely dangerous category 4 hurricane. However, rapid weakening
will occur after the center moves inland and the system moves over
the mountainous terrain of Mexico.
Smoothing out the trochoidal wobbles in the track, the motion
estimate, 310/8 kt, remains about the same as before. This general
motion, on the south side of a weak mid-level ridge, is likely to
continue until the system dissipates within the next day or two.
The official track forecast is just slightly west of the previous
one and close to the latest corrected consensus, HCCA, guidance.
KEY MESSAGES:
1. Erick is an extremely dangerous category 4 hurricane, and
devastating wind damage is likely near its core. Take shelter in
the interior portion of a well-built structure and remain sheltered
until after hazardous conditions pass.
2. Erick will produce heavy rainfall across portions of Southwest
Mexico through this week. Life-threatening flooding and mudslides
are likely, especially in areas of steep terrain.
3. A dangerous, life-threatening storm surge is expected to produce
coastal flooding near and to the east of where the center crosses
the coast, in areas of onshore winds. The surge will be accompanied
by large and destructive waves.

area beginning during the next few hours, with extremely destructive
winds near the core of Erick. Hurricane conditions are possible in
the hurricane watch area today. Tropical Storm conditions are
currently spreading onshore in the hurricane warning area. Tropical
storm conditions are ongoing in the tropical storm warning area.
Wind speeds atop and on the windward sides of hills and mountains
are often up to 30 percent stronger than the near-surface winds
indicated in this advisory, and in some elevated locations could be
even greater.

southern Mexico through today. These swells are likely to
cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please
consult products from your local weather office.
