AIR FORCE HURRICANE HUNTERS FIND RAFAEL CONTINUES TO WEAKEN...
At 900 AM CST (1500 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Rafael was
located near latitude 25.2 North, longitude 91.5 West, 295 miles NNW of Progreso, Mexico. Rafael is
moving toward the west-northwest near 6 mph (9 km/h). The storm is
expected to slow down and meander over the central Gulf of Mexico
Sunday into Monday, then turn toward the south or south-southwest by
Monday night.
Data from the Air Force Hurricane Hunters indicate that maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 50 mph (85 km/h) with higher gusts. Continued weakening is forecast through early next week. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 105 miles (165 km) from the center. The estimated minimum central pressure based on aircraft data is 999 mb (29.50 inches).
There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect.
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
Key messages for Rafael can be found in the Tropical Cyclone
Discussion, here.
SURF: Swells generated by Rafael will continue impacting portions of the northern and western Gulf Coast through the weekend. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office.
RAINFALL: Rainfall indirectly associated with the moisture from
Rafael is expected to lead to 3 to 6 inches of rain, with local
amounts to 10 inches, across portions of the Upper Texas Coast into
Southwest and Central Louisiana through Sunday morning. This rain
will lead to potentially significant flash flooding.
Next complete advisory at 300 PM CST.
