Trudy strengthened to a category 2 hurricane as it moved toward Mexico’s south-western and west-central Pacific coast on Saturday, the US National Hurricane Center said. A hurricane warning was in effect from Manzanillo in Colima state to Cabo Corrientes in Jalisco. The latest NHC data showed Trudy with maximum sustained winds of 100mph (155km/h) and about 205 miles (330km) south/south-east of Cabo Corrientes and 115 miles (180km) south/south-west of Manzanillo, moving north-west at 10mph (17km/h). Meanwhile, Typhoon Champi strengthened into a category 4 weather system as it moved toward Guam. Trudy’s center was expected to approach the Mexican coast on Saturday and pass near it into Sunday. After the latest warning, Mexico’s government issued a tropical storm warning for Las Islas Marias and discontinued a similar warning for its coast south of Lazaro Cardenas. The Mexican navy urged mariners and coastal residents to exercise extreme caution because of high waves, heavy rain and the risk of rising rivers, flooding and landslides in vulnerable areas.

Hurricane Trudy eyes Category 4 strength as Mexico braces for heavy rain - The Weather Network

Hurricane Trudy intensified rapidly overnight, becoming a Category 3 hurricane off Mexico's Pacific coast, as the eastern Pacific hurricane season approaches a significant milestone. Trudy is the tenth hurricane to form in the Eastern Pacific this year. It is also the first time since 2018 that the basin has seen ten major hurricanes, indicating an unusually active season. The storm is expected to intensify further through Friday, possibly reaching Category 4 status as it churns offshore. DON'T MISS: How the weather could be influencing your music tasteTrudy could strengthen before weakening near shoreTrudy is expected to maintain Category 4 strength through Saturday before gradually weakening as it approaches the coast. For the time being, a direct landfall is unlikely, as high pressure builds over Mexico, helping to steer the storm away from the coast. However, the forecast track may still bring severe weather to parts of southwestern and west-central Mexico. Even without a direct hit, a powerful hurricane passing close by can cause dangerous coastal conditions and torrential rains.
