The National Hurricane Center's 10 am Sunday advisory reported that Tropical Storm Rafael is 370 miles north-northwest of Progreso Mexico, with maximum sustained wind of 40 mph. It’s moving at 3 mph to the north-northwest.

"The storm is expected to meander over the central Gulf of Mexico through tonight, then turn toward the south and south-southwest on Monday and Tuesday." forecasters noted. "Weakening is expected, and Rafael is forecast to degenerate to a post-tropical remnant low by Monday."

HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND:

SURF: Swells generated by Rafael will continue impacting portions of the northern and western Gulf Coast through the remainder of this weekend. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions.
