SUMMARY OF 900 AM CST...1500 UTC...INFORMATION ---------------------------------------------- LOCATION...12.9N 103.0W ABOUT 345 MI...555 KM SW OF ACAPULCO MEXICO ABOUT 430 MI...690 KM SSE OF MANZANILLO MEXICO MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...105 MPH...165 KM/H PRESENT MOVEMENT...NNW OR 340 DEGREES AT 6 MPH...9 KM/H MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...970 MB...28.65 INCHES WATCHES AND WARNINGS -------------------- There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect. Interests along the southwestern coast of Mexico should monitor the progress of Vance. A Tropical Storm Watch may be required for portions of the southwestern coast of Mexico later today or tonight. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 900 AM CST (1500 UTC), the center of Hurricane Vance was located near latitude 12.9 North, longitude 103.0 West. Vance is moving toward the north-northwest near 6 mph (9 km/h), and a slow motion toward the north-northwest is expected to continue through the weekend. Maximum sustained winds are now near 105 mph (165 km/h) with higher gusts. Gradual weakening is expected through Sunday. Some re-intensification will be possible beginning Sunday night or Monday. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 30 miles (45 km) from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 150 miles (240 km). The estimated minimum central pressure is 970 mb (28.65 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- RAINFALL: Through next Thursday, Vance is expected to produce 3 to 6 inches with isolated higher totals around 10 inches across Colima and western portions of Michoacán and Jalisco. This rainfall may produce life-threatening flooding and mudslides, especially in areas along steep terrain. SURF: Swells generated by Vance will affect portions of the coast of southern and southwestern Mexico this weekend and continue into next week. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next complete advisory at 300 PM CST. $$ Forecaster Beven]]> -

Hurricane Vance Forecast Discussion Number 13
Issued at 900 AM CST Sat Oct 24 2026 338 WTPZ42 KNHC 241454 TCDEP2 Hurricane Vance Discussion Number 13 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP222026 900 AM CST Sat Oct 24 2026 The satellite appearance of Vance has deteriorated a bit during the past few hours, likely due to the combined effects of colder sea surface temperatures near the center and increasing southwesterly shear. While the eyewall cloud tops remain quite cold, the eye has become less distinct and the central dense overcast has become more ragged. The subjective and objective satellite intensity estimates have nudged downward, and the initial intensity is reduced to 90 kt. The intensity forecast is still problematic and low confidence. Vance is likely to weaken during the next 24 h as it crosses a pool of colder water with temperatures near 27C that has been upwelled by several previous tropical cyclones, and at the same time southwesterly shear is forecast to increase to near 20-25 kt. The cyclone is likely to take 24 h or so to cross the cold pool, then it is expected to move over sea surface temperatures near 29C closer to the coast of Mexico. This should allow intensification if the shear is light enough. The GFS and ECMWF both show a period of reduced, but still marginal, shear that could allow some intensification, and this is reflected in the intensity forecast. The new intensity forecast has some adjustments from the previous forecast, particularly after 60 h. There are three issues that should be noted for this forecast. First the 06Z GFS calls for Vance to make landfall along the Mexican coast as a hurricane, although at the moment no other guidance explicitly shows this. Second, it is possible that Vance could weaken more than currently forecast during the next 24 h as it passes over the cold pool. Third, it is possible that the shear may increase to the point where no re-intensification could occur, as the UKMET and Canadian models show stronger shear than the GFS and ECMWF. The initial motion is 340/5 kt. Vance is being steered by a weak low- to mid-level ridge over eastern Mexico, and it is approaching a large mid-latitude trough over the western United States and northwestern Mexico. While neither of these features will change much during the next few days, Vance is likely to move into an area of lighter steering currents near the base of the trough and slow its forward motion during the next 24-36 h. The track forecast after 36 h is dependent on how strong Vance is and how well Vance maintains its vertical structure. A weaker system that shears apart like shown in the UKMET and Canadian is likely to move west-northwestward to northwestward before resuming a more northerly motion, while a stronger and vertically deeper system is likely to continue slowly northward. The new forecast track is on the east side of the guidance envelope near the HFIP corrected consensus, Google DeepMind, and Florida State Superensemble, and it has only minor adjustments from the previous forecast. Key Messages: 1. Due to the uncertainties in both the track and intensity forecasts, it is too early to say what wind and storm surge impacts Vance may cause along the coast of Mexico. Interests in southwestern Mexico should continue to monitor the progress of the hurricane. 2. Heavy rainfall associated with slow-moving Hurricane Vance will impact the western coast of Mexico from Michoacán to Jalisco during much of next week. This rainfall may produce life-threatening flooding and mudslides across Colima and western portions of Michoacán and Jalisco, especially in areas along steep terrain.
