At 400 AM CDT (0900 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Nadine was located near latitude 17.4 North, longitude 87.1 West. Nadine is moving toward the west near 9 mph (15 km/h), and this general motion with an increase in forward speed is expected through today and tonight.

On the forecast track, the center of Nadine is forecast to make landfall along the coast of Belize late this morning or around midday, and then continue across northern Guatemala and southeastern Mexico late this afternoon into tonight.
Maximum sustained winds are near 40 mph (65 km/h) with higher gusts. Some slight strengthening is possible this morning before Nadine makes landfall.

Weakening is forecast to begin this afternoon once Nadine is inland, and the system is likely to dissipate over southeastern Mexico by early Sunday. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 230 miles (370 km) north of the center.

A WeatherFlow station in Cancun, Mexico, recently reported a sustained wind of 41 mph (67 km/h) and a gust to 51 mph (81 km/h). The estimated minimum central pressure is 1004 mb (29.65 inches).
