Hurricane Priscilla diminishes in the Pacific region, prompting weather alerts, while Tropical Storm Jerry approaches hurricane status as it moves towards the Leeward Islands.
MIAMI — Hurricane Priscilla has weakened as it travels along Mexico’s Pacific coast, transitioning to a Category 1 storm with maximum wind speeds of 80 mph. The U.S. National Hurricane Center reported that while the storm's intensity has decreased, it is still capable of producing heavy rainfall and flash flooding across parts of Mexico and the Southwestern United States.
As of Wednesday, Priscilla was located about 195 miles southwest of Baja California, moving northwest at 8 mph. Alerts have been issued for potential severe weather conditions along the coast, where residents can expect dangerous waves and flooding risk as the storm progresses.
In the Atlantic, Tropical Storm Jerry is gaining strength with maximum sustained winds recorded at 50 mph. Forecasters project that Jerry could escalate to hurricane status by Thursday, with its core expected to approach the Leeward Islands, raising concerns about 2 to 4 inches of rain and potential flooding in the area.
Weather advisories are in effect for Antigua, Barbuda, and other islands in the vicinity. The meteorological conditions surrounding both hurricanes are being closely monitored as they travel along their predicted paths, prompting readiness among affected communities.
