Mexico – Hurricane Vance

Tropical Storm Vance is likely to strengthen into a hurricane by Sunday. The Mexican states of southern Baja California Sur, Sinaloa and Jalisco are being put on alert for a potential landfalling Vance around Tuesday of next week. Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan and Puerto Vallarta lie within this zone. While Vance will likely be past its peak intensity when it comes onshore, it should still bring a danger of flooding rain, mudslides, damaging winds and pounding surf. The impacts from Vance may not stop when it reaches the coast. Its heavy rain may get drawn across northern Mexico and into the U.S. states of Texas and New Mexico.
