The Pacific Disaster Center’s (PDC Global) Thursday, June 19, 2025, Tropical Cyclone Activity Report…for the Pacific Ocean, the Indian Ocean, and adjacent Seas

Current Tropical Cyclones:

Post-Tropical cyclone 05E (Erick)…is located about 95 miles northwest of Acapulco, Mexico – Last Advisory

 

Northeast Pacific Ocean: 

Post-Tropical cyclone 05E (Erick) – Last Advisory

ERICK DECAYS TO A LOW PRESSURE AREA… …THREAT OF FLOODING RAINS CONTINUES

According to the NHC Advisory number 15

The post-tropical cyclone is moving toward the northwest near 13 mph (20 km/h) and this motion is expected to continue until the system dissipates over Mexico. Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 30 mph (45 km/h) with higher gusts. Additional weakening is expected, and the post-tropical low is expected to dissipate later tonight or early Friday.

HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND  

RAINFALL: Erick will produce additional rainfall of 3 to 6 inches through the night mainly in the state of Guerrero with storm totals of 16 inches possible. Life-threatening flooding and mudslides are expected, especially in areas of steep terrain. Rainfall totals of 1 to 3 inches, with maximum totals of 5 inches, are expected across the states of Michoacan and Oaxaca.

WIND: A few wind gusts to tropical-storm force may occur this evening in squalls and in mountainous regions near the center of Erick.

STORM SURGE: Storm surge is expected to gradually subside through tonight.

SURF: Swells generated by Erick will continue affecting the coast of southern Mexico through the evening. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions.

Offshore of Central America and Southern Mexico:

>>> An area of low pressure is forecast to develop early next week off the coast of Central America. Environmental conditions appear conducive for some gradual development after that time as the system moves west-northwestward off the coasts of Central America and southern Mexico.
