SUMMARY OF WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN EFFECT: There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect. DISCUSSION AND 48-HOUR OUTLOOK ------------------------------ At 800 PM PDT (0300 UTC), the center of Tropical Depression Lidia was located near latitude 29.0 North, longitude 115.8 West. The depression is moving toward the northwest near 10 mph (17 km/h), and this general motion is expected to continue for the next day or two. Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 35 mph (55 km/h) with higher gusts. Lidia is expected to become a remnant low by early Sunday morning. The estimated minimum central pressure is 1002 mb (29.59 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- RAINFALL: Lidia is expected to produce total rain accumulations of 4 to 8 inches across the Mexican states of Baja California Sur into Baja California and the coastal section of Sonora and northern Sinaloa, with isolated maximum amounts of 12 inches. These rains may cause life-threatening flash floods and mudslides. Some of the tropical moisture from Lidia will spread across parts of the desert Southwest this holiday weekend for an increase in scattered showers and thunderstorms, from southern Nevada and western Arizona into southern California. WIND: All Tropical Storm Warnings have been discontinued. Wind speeds atop and on the windward sides of hills and mountains may be stronger than the near-surface winds indicated in this advisory. SURF: Swells generated by Lidia are affecting portions of the coast of western mainland Mexico and the west coast of Baja California Sur. These swells could cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office.
