Warning.
SUMMARY OF WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN EFFECT:
A Tropical Storm Warning is in effect for...
* East of Acapulco to Lagunas de Chacahua
A Tropical Storm Warning means that tropical storm conditions are
expected somewhere within the warning area, in this case over the
next few hours.
For storm information specific to your area, please monitor

The estimated minimum central pressure is 990 mb (29.24 inches).
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
Key Messages for John can be found in the Tropical Cyclone
Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDEP5 and WMO header WTPZ45 KNHC

DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 1200 AM CST (0600 UTC), the center of Hurricane John was located
near latitude 16.9 North, longitude 99.2 West. John is moving
toward the north-northwest near 8 mph (13 km/h). On the forecast

the coast of southern Mexico later today.
Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 100 mph (160 km/h)
with higher gusts. Rapid weakening over the high terrain of
southern Mexico is forecast now that the core of John has moved
inland.
Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 10 miles (20 km) from the
center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 45 miles
(75 km). Recently, the Acapulco International Airport reported a
wind gust of 43 mph (69 km/h).

...MAJOR HURRICANE JOHN MAKES LANDFALL IN MEXICO...
Satellite data indicates that Hurricane John has made landfall
along the southern coast of Mexico just to the south-southwest of
Marquelia, Mexico in the state of Guerrero at around 915 PM CST
(0315 UTC). The maximum sustained winds at landfall are estimated
to be 120 mph (195 km/h), and the minimum central pressure is
estimated at 959 mb (28.32 inches). This makes John a category 3
hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale.

Hurricane John Discussion Number 7
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP102024
900 PM CST Mon Sep 23 2024
John has continued to strengthen this evening with a small tight
inner core, which was well depicted in SSMIS microwave images around
00z. Infrared imagery depicts an eye with cold cloud tops near -80 C
wrapping around the core. Subjective intensity estimates have
continued to increase this evening with data-T values of T5.5 from
both SAB and TAFB, with final-T values constrained due to the rapid
intensification. Given the most recent satellite depiction and using
the data-T values, the intensity for this advisory is increased to
105 kt. John is now a major category 3 hurricane.
The hurricane could still strengthen some more over the next couple
of hours before it makes landfall along the coast of southern
Mexico. After John moves inland, rapid weakening is forecast over
the higher terrain with the small inner core quickly deteriorating.
The rate of weakening could occur faster than what is currently
forecast and the 24 h forecast point is held for continuity inland
as it is possible the system could dissipate sooner.
John continues to move northward around 7 kt. This current motion
should continue as John nears the coast, making landfall in the next
couple of hours and will continue to move inland on Tuesday. The
cyclone is forecast to slow its forward motion as it moves inland
and dissipates.
KEY MESSAGES:
1. John is expected to be a major hurricane as it reaches the coast
of southern Mexico within the Hurricane Warning area in the next
couple of hours. Damaging hurricane-force winds and a
life-threatening storm surge are expected within portions of the
hurricane warning area.
2. Slow-moving Hurricane John will bring very heavy rainfall to
coastal portions of southwest Mexico through the upcoming week. This
heavy rainfall will likely cause significant and possibly
catastrophic, life-threatening flash flooding and mudslides to the
Mexican States of Chiapas, Oaxaca, and southeast Guerrero,
particularly in areas near the coast.

DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 900 PM CST (0300 UTC), the center of Hurricane John was located
near latitude 16.3 North, longitude 98.8 West. John is moving toward
the north near 8 mph (13 km/h). On the forecast track, the center of
John is forecast to move inland along the coast of southern Mexico
in the next couple of hours. John will continue to move inland over
southern Mexico on Tuesday.
Maximum sustained winds have increased to near 120 mph (195 km/h)
with higher gusts. John is now a category 3 hurricane on the
Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Some additional strengthening
is possible the next couple of hours before John makes landfall.
After landfall, the system will rapidly weaken over the high terrain
of southern Mexico.
Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 10 miles (20 km) from the
center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 45 miles
(75 km).
The estimated minimum central pressure is 959 mb (28.32 inches).
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
Key Messages for John 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: Through Thursday, Hurricane John is expected to
produce 6 to 12 inches of rain with isolated totals around 15 inches
across the coastal areas of Chiapas. In areas along and near the
Oaxaca coast to southeast Guerrero, between 10 and 20 inches of rain
with isolated totals near 30 inches can be expected through
Thursday.
For a complete depiction of forecast rainfall associated with
Hurricane John, please see the National Weather Service Storm Total
Rainfall Graphic, available at
hurricanes.gov/graphics_ep5.shtml?rainqpf
STORM SURGE: A life-threatening storm surge is expected to produce
significant coastal flooding near and to the east of where the
center makes landfall. Near the coast, the surge will be
accompanied by large and destructive waves.
WIND: Hurricane conditions are ongoing within portions of the
hurricane warning area. Tropical-storm-force winds are already
occuring within the 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.
SURF: Swells associated with John are forecast to continue
affecting the coast of southern Mexico during the next couple of
days, with the potential for dangerous surf and rip currents much of
the week. Please see local statements for more information.

At 600 PM CST (0000 UTC), the center of Hurricane John was located
near latitude 15.9 North, longitude 98.6 West. John is moving toward
the north near 8 mph (15 km/h). A slow motion to the north or

Maximum sustained winds have increased to near 105 mph (165 km/h)
with higher gusts. John is a category 2 hurricane on the
Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Additional strengthening is
possible over the next few hours and John could become a major
hurricane before making landfall along the coast of southern Mexico.
Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 10 miles (20 km) from
the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 45
miles (75 km).
The estimated minimum central pressure is 970 mb (28.64 inches).
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
Key Messages for John 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: Through Thursday, John is expected to produce 6 to 12
inches of rain with isolated totals around 15 inches across the
coastal areas of Chiapas. In areas along and near the Oaxaca coast
to southeast Guerrero, between 10 and 20 inches of rain with
isolated totals near 30 inches can be expected through Thursday.
This heavy rainfall will likely cause significant and possibly
catastrophic, life-threatening flash flooding and mudslides to the
Mexican States of Chiapas, Oaxaca, and southeast Guerrero,
particularly in areas near the coast.
For a complete depiction of forecast rainfall associated with
Hurricane John, please see the National Weather Service Storm
Total Rainfall Graphic, available at
hurricanes.gov/graphics_ep5.shtml?rainqpf
STORM SURGE: A life-threatening storm surge is expected to produce
significant coastal flooding near and to the east of where the
center makes landfall. Near the coast, the surge will be
accompanied by large and destructive waves.
WIND: Hurricane conditions are imminent within portions of
the hurricane warning area. Tropical-storm-force winds are already
occuring within the warning area.
SURF: Swells associated with John are forecast to continue
affecting the coast of southern Mexico during the next couple of
days, with the potential for dangerous surf and rip currents much of
the week. Please see local statements for more information.
