DVORAK CURRENT INTENSITY ESTIMATES FROM SAB AND TAFB RANGE FROM 55 KT TO 77 KT...AND THE INTENSITY IS HELD AT 65 KT FOR THIS ADVISORY. IT APPEARS THAT THE WINDOW FOR ADDITIONAL STRENGTHENING PRIOR TO LANDFALL IS CLOSING...AND THE OFFICIAL FORECAST SHOWS NO CHANGE IN STRENGTH BEFORE THE CENTER MOVES INLAND.

GEOSTATIONARY AND MICROWAVE SATELLITE CENTER FIXES...ALONG WITH THE BROWNSVILLE WSR-88D RADAR...INDICATE THAT THE CENTER HAS GAINED A LITTLE MORE LATITUDE AND THE MOTION IS ESTIMATED TO BE 285/6. HOWEVER...THE TRACK GUIDANCE MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT ON A TURN TOWARD THE WEST A LITTLE LATER TODAY AND A TURN TO THE WEST-SOUTHWEST BY TONIGHT. THIS IS CONSISTENT WITH STEERING BY THE FLOW TO THE SOUTH OF A MID-LEVEL RIDGE OVER TEXAS ALONG WITH INTERACTION WITH THE HIGH TERRAIN OF MEXICO. THE LATTER FEATURE TYPICALLY INDUCES A LEFTWARD BEND IN THE MOTION FOR LANDFALLING TROPICAL CYCLONES IN THIS REGION. THE OFFICIAL FORECAST IS A LITTLE NORTH OF THE TRACK MODEL CONSENSUS AND CLOSE TO THE LATEST HWRF MODEL TRACK. IN ADDITION TO THE WIND AND STORM SURGE THREATS...TORRENTIAL RAINS FROM BOTH INGRID AND THE REMNANTS OF MANUEL NEAR THE PACIFIC COAST OF MEXICO ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE ACROSS EASTERN AND CENTRAL MEXICO DURING THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS.
