Tropical Storm Lowell to Turn for Baja California Sur
09/07/2008 10:32 PM MDT Tropical Storms Lowell continues to strengthen slowly as it move WNW some some 325 miles south of Cabo San Lucas. Forecasts anticipate that Lowell will remain a tropical storm as it moves NW into the Pacific. Long range forecasts are beginning to solidify on a Baja landfall along the Pacific coast of Baja California Sur late this week.
Topical Storm Lowell is currently located near 18.2N 109.8W and is moving 295° at 10kts. Central barometric pressure is estimated at 996Mb and winds are 50kts with gusts to 60kts. Forecasts call for Lowell to remain a tropical storm through the 5 days forecast period. The most significant change to the forecast for us here in Baja is that now Lowell is expected to turn NE, back in our direction by mid week.
