The mountainous terrain of southern Mexico continues to take a toll on Agatha.  Although a fairly well-defined mid-level circulation is still evident in satellite imagery, the low-level center has dissipated over southern Mexico.  Therefore, this will be the final advisory on Agatha.

At 10 a.m. CDT, the remnants were located about 80 miles (125 km) north-northeast of Salina Cruz, Mexico. The remnants are moving toward the northeast near 8 mph (13 km/h), and this general motion is expected to continue today.  On the forecast track, the remnants of Agatha will continue to move inland over southern Mexico today.

Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 30 mph (45 km/h) with higher gusts.  The estimated minimum central pressure is 1007 mb (29.74 inches). Additional weakening is expected today.

Agatha will produce heavy rains over portions of southern Mexico through tonight. The following storm total rainfall amounts are currently expected:

- Mexican state of Oaxaca: 10 to 16 inches, with isolated maximum amounts of 20 inches possible. Life-threatening flash flooding and mudslides may occur.

- Mexican state of Chiapas: 5 to 10 inches, with isolated maximum amounts of 15 inches possible. Life-threatening flash flooding and mudslides may occur.

- Mexican states of Veracruz and Tabasco: 2 to 4 inches, with isolated maximum amounts of 6 inches possible.

This is the last public advisory issued by the National Hurricane Center on this system.  For additional information on heavy rainfall and flooding, please see products issued by your national meteorological service.
