Agatha is expected to make landfall along the southern, Pacific coast of Mexico this evening or tonight. The system will likely weaken to the point of being a remnant low pressure area by tomorrow night. The National Hurricane Center has defined an area in the southern Gulf of Mexico and Bay of Campeche OR the western Caribbean Sea near the Yucatan Peninsula where the remnants of Agatha may redevelop into a tropical storm. Early model indications point to the remnants of Agatha never being a direct concern for Alabama or northwest Florida.
