Tropical Storm Ivo is weakening in the eastern Pacific and is expected to transition into a post-tropical remnant low soon. The system is not expected to make landfall but is producing swells that will affect coastal waters near the southern Baja California peninsula.At 2:00 a.m. MST on Sunday, the center of Tropical Storm Ivo was located about 335 miles (535 km) west-southwest of the southern tip of Baja California. The storm is moving west-northwest at 8 mph (13 km/h). Forecasts indicate a gradual turn toward the west with a slight increase in forward speed over the next two days.

The storm currently has maximum sustained winds of 40 mph (65 km/h). These wind speeds are expected to weaken steadily as the system moves farther into the open Pacific. The National Hurricane Center forecasts that Ivo will lose tropical storm characteristics within the next day and become a remnant low.Swells generated by Tropical Storm Ivo will continue to affect the southern Baja California coast through the next 24 hours. These swells can produce life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Beachgoers, swimmers, and surfers are advised to follow safety warnings and avoid dangerous waters. Local advisories from the Servicio Meteorológico Nacional and civil defense authorities should be followed closely.
Currently, no coastal watches or warnings are in effect for Mexico. The system's distance from land reduces direct wind threats, but marine hazards remain due to swells and currents. Mariners in the area should monitor weather updates every six hours for potential changes to Ivo's size, track, and wind field distribution.Also Read: NYC Dominican Day Parade 2025: Date, start time, route map, notable attendees, street closures, safety measures and weather forecast
Over the next 24 hours, Ivo is forecast to weaken further as it moves westward into less favorable environmental conditions. It will likely lose its tropical storm designation and persist as a remnant low. While its direct impact on land will remain minimal, its generated swells will continue to influence nearshore waters along the southern Baja California peninsula before gradually subsiding.Residents, visitors, and marine operators should take caution when near the coastline or on the water. Even without strong winds reaching shore, wave action and rip currents can present significant dangers. The Servicio Meteorológico Nacional and local authorities provide the most up-to-date safety guidance for the region.
Where is Tropical Storm Ivo currently located?
Tropical Storm Ivo is about 335 miles west-southwest of the southern tip of Baja California, moving west-northwest at 8 mph, with winds of 40 mph, weakening toward a remnant low.
What risks does Ivo pose to coastal areas?
While not expected to make landfall, Ivo's swells can cause hazardous surf and rip currents along the southern Baja California coast, creating dangerous conditions for swimmers and boaters.

Typhoon Podul brings no major damage as it crosses Taiwan, heads for China

Taipei, Aug 13 (AP) Typhoon Podul crossed southern Taiwan, where authorities closed schools and government offices as heavy rain threatened more damage to agriculture in the island's southeast. No major damage was reported. The storm hit Taitung county on the east coast shortly after noon, moving across the south of the island at about 36 kilometres per hour. By 5:00 pm (0900 GMT) its centre was just off Taiwan's west coast, churning out into the Taiwan Strait and China, according to the Central Weather Administration. In China, the coastal provinces of Fujian and Guangdong recalled fishing boats to port and evacuated around 15,000 people living near the coast to shelters further inland. Taiwanese media reported one person missing on the east coast. Typhoons like Podul typically hit Taiwan's east coast hard before losing speed and strength as they pass over the Central Mountain Range before continuing toward the Chinese coast. Podul measured 120 kilometres across and was expected to broaden even while losing strength as the storm moved westward. The areas affected were well south of the capital, Taipei, along with Taiwan's main international airport and high-tech industrial base. Around a dozen flights that would have travelled south toward the path of the storm were delayed or cancelled. The counties and cities of Tainan, Kaohsiung, Chiayi, Yunlin, Pingtung and Hualien on the east coast and the island group of Penghu in the Taiwan Strait were taking the brunt of the storm. Along with flooding, typhoons routinely damage fruit and other cash crops and bring landslides through the island's centre. Much of central and southern Taiwan was badly hit by heavy rains in recent weeks that caused severe damage to crops but minimal casualties, while also knocking out electricity to rural areas that took weeks to repair.

Disney World on alert as Tropical Storm Erin threatens Florida, could become Hurricane soon; Know what's open and closed

Disney World is accustomed to the storm season due to its Central Florida location. Disney World had to close its parks, given the hazardous weather caused by hurricanes and tropical storms that hit Orlando in the past. Disney World keeps a careful eye on weather conditions and their potential effects on visitors and the parks.(AP Photo/John Raoux, File) Tropical Storm Erin is the latest meteorological phenomenon that has developed this week. As the storm is expected to intensify into a hurricane, it is likely to affect Florida and Disney World. Tropical Storm Erin and its impact on Disney World Tropical Storm Erin has developed in the Atlantic as of August 12, 2025, and is expected to intensify over the next few days. Erin was roughly 690 miles west of the Cabo Verde Islands, as per National Hurricane Center's alert issued at 5 am. The highest sustained speeds were close to 45 mph with stronger gusts. 'Gradual strengthening is forecast over the next several days, and Erin is expected to become a hurricane in the next couple of days,' the hurricane center stated in the advisory. According to the current projection, Erin may develop into a hurricane on Thursday, August 14. Forecast models presently predict a turn to the north, but it's unclear when and where that will happen. As a result, it is currently uncertain how much, if any, of an influence will be felt in Florida.

Disney World keeps a careful eye on weather conditions and their potential effects on visitors and the parks. Disney usually shuts down its four major parks and halts transportation when storms are predicted. While some areas, including The Campsites at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort, might be evacuated, on-site resort hotels remain open. Outdoor attractions are frequently the first to close amid storm and heavy rains. This could lead to temporarily closure of Slinky Dog Dash, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, and Expedition Everest at Disney World. What we know about Disney World's hurricane cancellation and modification policy Disney does not charge cancellation or change fees for vacation packages or most room-only reservations if a hurricane advisory is issued by the National Hurricane Center for the Orlando area within a week of your planned arrival date. Disney's Hilton Head Island Resort and Disney's Vero Beach Resort are likewise covered under this policy if a hurricane warning is issued for those locations. Disney does not provide coverage for any travel or services provided by outside vendors.

At least 3 dead, thousands displaced as wildfires rage across southern Europe

Agency: Athens (Greece), Aug 13 (AP) Wildfires intensified across southern Europe on Wednesday after a nightlong battle to protect the perimeter of Greece's third-largest city, with at least three more deaths reported in Spain, Turkiye and Albania. Outside the Greek port city of Patras, firefighters struggled to protect homes and agricultural facilities as flames tore through olive groves. As water-dropping planes and helicopters swooped overhead, residents joined the effort, beating back flames with cut branches or dousing them with buckets of water. Firefighting resources were stretched thin in many affected countries as they battled multiple outbreaks following weeks of heat waves and temperature spikes across Mediterranean Europe. Aircraft rotated between blazes on the western Greek mainland, the Patras area and the island of Zakynthos. Athens also sent assistance to neighbouring Albania, joining an international effort to combat dozens of wildfires. An 80-year-old man died in one blaze south of the capital, Tirana, officials said Wednesday. Residents of four villages were evacuated in central Albania near a former army ammunition depot. In the southern Korca district, near the Greek border, explosions were reported from buried World War II-era artillery shells. Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez expressed condolences after the death of a firefighting volunteer in the hard-hit Castile and Leon region north of Madrid, where thousands have been displaced by evacuations. The government raised its national emergency response level, preparing additional support for regional authorities overseeing multiple evacuations and highway closures. A forestry worker was also killed on Wednesday while responding to a wildfire in southern Turkiye, officials said. The Forestry Ministry said the worker died in an accident involving a fire truck that left four others injured. Turkiye has been battling severe wildfires since late June. A total of 18 people have been killed, including 10 rescue volunteers and forestry workers who died in July.
