Once again, this system won't threaten the Mexican Pacific coast, moving toward the west-northwest, and will have a relatively short lifetime.
Here's the latest from the National Hurricane Center:
  • Tropical Storm Howard was located nearly 1,000 miles west-southwest of the southern tip of Baja California as of Monday.
  • Some additional strengthening is possible into Tuesday, before weakening ensues after that.
  • This system is no threat to any land areas.
