DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 500 AM MST (1200 UTC), the center of Hurricane Simon was located 
near latitude 20.1 North, longitude 106.4 West. Simon is moving 
slowly toward the northwest near 2 mph (4 km/h) and this general

and Simon is expected to move inland across west-central Mexico 
around midweek.
 
Maximum sustained winds are near 115 mph (185 km/h) with higher 
gusts. Simon is a category 3 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson 
Hurricane Wind Scale. Some additional weakening is forecast, however 
Simon is expected to remain a hurricane through midweek. Rapid 
weakening is likely after Simon moves inland.
 
Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 15 miles (30 km) from
the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 60
miles (95 km).
 
The estimated minimum central pressure is 958 mb (28.29 inches).
 
 
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND

Key messages for Simon can be found in the Tropical Cyclone
Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDEP5 and WMO header WTPZ45 KNHC.
 
WIND: Hurricane conditions are likely occuring in the Hurricane 
Warning area, with hurricane conditions spreading northward today. 
Hurricane conditions are possible within the watch area by 
Wednesday, with tropical storm conditions possible by Tuesday night.
 
RAINFALL: Simon is expected to produce additional rainfall totals of 
2 to 4 inches across coastal portions of southwest and west-central 
Mexico with isolated additional amounts of 6 to 8 inches over 
portions of the state of Jalisco into the early portion of the week 
and the state of Sinaloa mainly Wednesday and Thursday. Isolated 
maximum storm totals of 30 inches are possible over portions of the 
states of Michoacan, Colima, and Jalisco. This rainfall will produce 
life-threatening flooding and mudslides or worsen any on-going 
flooding, especially in areas of steep terrain.
 
For a complete depiction of forecast rainfall associated with Simon,
please see the National Weather Service Storm Total Rainfall Graphic
available at hurricanes.gov/graphics_ep5.shtml?rainqpf.
 
STORM SURGE: A dangerous storm surge is expected along the immediate
coast near and to the east of where the center approaches land. Near
the coast, the surge will be accompanied by large and destructive
waves.
 
SURF:  Swells generated by Simon will affect portions of the coast
of southwestern and west-central Mexico during the next few days.
These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip
current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather
office.
