Descripción: Hurricane Jimena rapidly intensifying, which began to take place early on August 29 as extremely deep convection developed and microwave satellite imagery depicted a developing eye feature within the center of the storm. Jimena turned towards the northwest by this time and moved over very warm sea surface temperatures, averaging 30 °C (86 °F). As the storm moved parallel to the Mexican coast, interests in the region were asked to watch the progress of the system. Officials opened shelters in case of strong wind. In Acapulco the storm produced overcast skies, but ports in the area remained open. The high terrain of Guerrero, Colima, and Jalisco suffered mudslides, landslides, and heavy rain from outer rainbands related to the system. Strong waves generated by the hurricane and gusty winds forced a boat to arrive late in port. These winds, as well as heavy rainfall, uprooted one tree. Several other trees were damaged and the hurricane kicked up surf in the area.
