OVER WARM WATERS AND IN A LIGHT-SHEAR AND RELATIVELY MOIST
ENVIRONMENT...BUD SHOULD REACH HURRICANE STRENGTH SHORTLY. BEYOND
24 HOURS...PROGRESSIVELY COOLER WATERS...A DRIER AND MORE STABLE
ENVIRONMENT...AND SOME MARGINAL INCREASE IN SOUTHERLY SHEAR WILL
LIKELY INDUCE WEAKENING. THE PROXIMITY OF THE TRACK TO SOUTHWESTERN
MEXICO IN 48-72 HOURS SUGGESTS THE POTENTIAL FOR LAND INTERACTION
AND AN EVEN FASTER WEAKENING THAN PREDICTED. EITHER THE LESS
FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT OR INTERACTION WITH THE MEXICAN COAST SHOULD
CONTRIBUTE TO WEAKENING TO REMNANT LOW STATUS LATER IN THE FORECAST
PERIOD. THE OFFICIAL NHC INTENSITY IS SIMILAR TO BUT SLIGHTLY HIGHER
THAN THE PREVIOUS ONE AND CLOSEST TO THE FSSE MODEL OUTPUT
