Tropical depression hovers near Mexico’s southwest

MEXICO CITY -- A tropical depression scattered rains across Mexico’s Pacific coast on Sunday and the U.S. National Hurricane Center said it was likely to reach tropical storm force. Tropical Depression Five-E had maximum sustained winds near 35 mph (55 kph) with higher gusts Sunday morning. It was centered about 125 miles (200 kilometers) southwest of Zihuatanejo. A tropical storm warning was in effect for the coast between Zihuatanejo and Acapulco.

The center of the depression was expected to closely parallel or move over the coast Sunday or Monday, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said.
