Hurricane Georgette rapidly strengthened to a Category 4 hurricane Sunday night, but now has begun its inevitable weakening phase far from land over the eastern Pacific Ocean.
Georgette was the fourth east Pacific Hurricane this month, tying a record in that basin for the most hurricanes in July.
Here's the latest from the National Hurricane Center:
- Hurricane Georgette was located about 1,210 miles west-southwest of the southern tip of Baja California, as of Monday afternoon.
- Rapid weakening is expected over the next two days, thanks to Georgette's movement into an air mass more suppressive for thunderstorms and over cooler water.
- This system is no threat to the U.S. mainland or Mexico.
