Hurricane Marie weakened west of Baja California on Saturday night.\u00a0 At 11:00 p.m. EDT on Saturday the center of Hurricane Marie was located at latitude 19.5\u00b0N and longitude 127.9\u00b0W which put it about 1180 miles (1900 km) west of the southern tip of Baja California.\u00a0 Marie was moving toward the northwest at 8 m.p.h. (13 km\/h).\u00a0 The maximum sustained wind speed was 115 m.p.h. (185 km\/h) and there were wind gusts to 135 m.p.h. (220 km\/h).\u00a0 The minimum surface pressure was 960 mb.<\/p>\n
Hurricane Marie began to move over water where the Sea Surface Temperature was cooler than 26\u00b0C on Saturday evening.\u00a0 Marie was unable to extract enough energy from the ocean to maintain its intensity.\u00a0 The circulation around Hurricane Marie pulled cooler, more stable air around its southern side.\u00a0 The rainbands in the southern half of Marie started to weaken.\u00a0 The southern side of the eyewall weakened too.\u00a0 Strong thunderstorms were still occurring in rainbands in the northern half of Hurricane Marie.\u00a0 Winds to hurricane force extended out 30 miles (50 km) from the center of circulation.\u00a0 Winds to tropical storm force extended out 150 miles (240 km) from the center.<\/p>\n
Hurricane Marie will move around the western side of a ridge of high pressure over the southwestern U.S.\u00a0 The high will steer Marie toward the north-northwest during the next few days.\u00a0 Hurricane Marie will move over even cooler water during the next several days, which will cause it to weaken more quickly.\u00a0 Marie could weaken to a tropical depression by the middle of next week.\u00a0 Eventually, some of the moisture in Hurricane Marie could be transported over California by the end of next week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
