Tropical Depression Lester brought rain to southern Mexico on Saturday afternoon. At 2:00 p.m. EDT on Saturday the center of Tropical Depression Lester was located at latitude 16.5°N and longitude 98.5°W which put it about 85 miles (135 km) east-southeast of Acapulco, Mexico. Lester was moving toward the north at 10 m.p.h. (16 km/h). The maximum sustained wind speed was 35 m.p.h. (55 km/h) and there were wind gusts to 45 m.p.h. (75 km/h). The minimum surface pressure was 1009 mb.
Former Tropical Storm Lester quickly weakened to a tropical depression after the center made landfall on the coast of Mexico east of Acapulco. The government of Mexico discontinued the tropical storm warnings and watches for the coast. Tropical Depression Lester is forecast to dissipate quickly as it moves farther inland over Mexico. Even though Lester will weaken quickly, bands in the eastern side of Lester’s circulation will drop locally heavy rain over parts of Guerrero and Oaxaca. Heavy rain could cause flash floods in some locations.
