THERE WAS A LITTLE BIT OF A SURPRISE TODAY. UNEXPECTELY...NORA HAS
DEVELOPED A FEW CURVED BAND OF CONVECTION INDICATING THAT THE
CYCLONE HAS NOT DISSIPATED YET. SURFACE DATA SUGGEST THAT THE WINDS
REMAIN AT 25 KNOTS. NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGE IN INTENSITY IS
ANTICIPATED BEFORE THE CENTER MOVES INLAND LATE TONIGHT OR EARLY
THURSDAY AND THE CYCLONE BEGIN TO WEAKEN. 

NORA CONTINUES TO MOVE ABOUT 020 DEGREES AT 10 KNOTS AROUND THE
CIRCULATION OF AN UPPER-LEVEL LOW. ON THIS TRACK THE DEPRESSION
WILL BRING SQUALLS AND GUSTY WINDS TO PORTIONS OF THE COAST OF
MEXICO BETWEEN MAZATLAN AND LOS MOCHIS.
