Typhoon Lisa made landfall at 5:20 p.m. EDT Wednesday, Nov. 2, about 10 miles southwest of Belize City, Belize. At landfall, Lisa was a classification 1 storm with 85 miles per hour winds and a main pressure of 990 mb. The cyclone passed straight over the capital of Belize, Belize City, where a big storm rise flooded much of the city.
At 11 a.m. EDT Thursday, Lisa was focused about 65 miles southeast of Ciudad del Carmen, Mexico, heading west at 10 miles per hour, with leading continual winds of 35 miles per hour and a main pressure of 1008 mb. Although simply a tropical anxiety, Lisa appeared efficient on satellite images and Mexican radar, with a location of heavy thunderstorms that were bringing heavy rains to southern Mexico and northwestern Guatemala. Lisa is forecasted to bring 4-6 inches of rain to parts of Mexico along its track.
Projection for Lisa
Lisa is anticipated to turn more to the northwest, on a track that will bring it over the Gulf of Mexico’s Bay of Campeche on Friday early morning. Over the weekend, Lisa’s guiding currents will collapse, and the system will meander gradually over the Bay of Campeche. High wind shear of 20-30 knots and dry air with a midlevel relative humidity of 45-50% are anticipated over the Gulf this weekend, and these hostile conditions will likely lower Lisa to a residue low by Sunday.
