Raymond has now weakened to a tropical storm as it continues moving slowly away from the Mexican Pacific coast.

That said, lingering bands of heavy rain will continue to soak parts of the south-central Mexico coast into Wednesday. This rainfall could cause life-threatening flash floods and mudslides near and inland from the coast of Mexico, specifically the states of Guerrero and Michoacan. These areas were devastated by flooding and mudslides from Hurricane Manuel last month, killing over 100 people.

Acapulco reported 7.63 inches (194 mm) of rain in the 48-hour period ending at 7 a.m. CDT Tuesday.

Improving conditions are likely along the Mexico coast through late week as Raymond moves farther away.
From Sunday morning into early Monday, Raymond rapidly intensified with top sustained winds increasing from 40 mph to 120 mph, becoming the first major hurricane of 2013 in the entire Western Hemisphere.
Raymond peaked in intensity late Monday with top sustained winds of 125 mph, but has since weakened.
