Issued at 700 AM CDT Thu Sep 14 2017 000 WTPZ41 KNHC 141153 TCDEP1 Hurricane Max Special Discussion Number 5 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP162017 700 AM CDT Thu Sep 14 2017 Radar imagery from Acapulco, Mexico, indicates that Max has continued to improve in structure and now has a well-defined eye and closed eyewall. An eye has also occasionally been evident in infrared satellite imagery. Based on these signs, Max has been upgraded to a hurricane with 65-kt winds. Max appears to be cruising eastward just offshore the coast of Mexico. However, the hurricane is still expected to move inland later today. The 12-hour point has been adjusted southward and increased to 75 kt to account for Max's recent motion, possible delayed landfall, and increased opportunity to strengthen before it reaches land. The government of Mexico has changed the Tropical Storm Warning and Hurricane Watch from Zihuatanejo to Punta Maldonado to a Hurricane Warning. Life-threatening flooding rainfall is still expected in portions of the states of Guerrero and Oaxaca. This special advisory is being issued in lieu of the regularly scheduled 7 AM CDT intermediate public advisory.
