DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 700 PM CDT (0000 UTC), the center of Hurricane Lisa was located inland near latitude 17.5 North, longitude 88.5 West. Lisa is moving toward the west near 12 mph (19 km/h). This general motion is expected to continue for the next day or so, bringing the center of Lisa across Belize, northern Guatemala, and southeastern Mexico. After that time, a turn to the northwest and a decrease in forward speed are expected as Lisa moves over the Bay of Campeche. Maximum sustained winds are estimated to be near 75 mph (120 km/h) with higher gusts. Rapid weakening will continue while the center of Lisa moves farther inland. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 15 miles (30 km) from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 70 miles (110 km). An observation station at the port of Belize City reported a sustained wind of 68 mph (109 km/h) with a wind gust of 86 mph (138 km/h) within the past couple of hours. The estimated minimum central pressure is 990 mb (29.24 inches).

This rainfall could lead to flash flooding conditions, primarily across Belize into northern Guatemala, the far southeast portion of the Yucatan peninsula, the southern portion of the Mexican state of Campeche, Tabasco, northern Chiapas and far eastern Veracruz. STORM SURGE: A storm surge will likely raise water levels by as much as 4 to 7 feet above normal tide levels in areas of onshore flow near and to the north of the center of Lisa along the coast of Belize and extreme southeastern portions of the Yucatan Peninsula. Elsewhere, a storm surge of 1 to 3 feet is possible within the Tropical Storm Warning area in eastern Yucatan and up to 1 foot for the Bay Islands of Honduras. Near the coast, the surge will be accompanied by large and damaging waves. SURF: Swells generated by Lisa are expected to affect portions of Central America during the next day or two.
