As of 2 p.m. PDT (2100 UTC), Tropical Storm Olaf is located within 30 nautical miles of 19.4°N 117.8°W, or about 565 miles (905 km) west-southwest of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula.
The cyclone is packing winds of 40 miles per hour (65 km/h), with stronger gusts. Minimum central pressure is 1002 mbar, and the system is moving west-northwest at 6 miles per hour (9 km/h).
The storm is expected to turn towards the northeast over coming days, which would bring it on a course towards Mexico. However, it is expected to begin weakening and dissipate before it approaches land. Forecasters say Olaf won't have much of an impact during its existence.
