Summary

Description
English: Tropical Storm Enrique was just beginning to form off the coast of Central America on June 24, 2021, when the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on board NASA’s Terra satellite acquired this true-color image. The system was coalescing around a cloudy center over the Pacific Ocean south of the state of Oaxaca, Mexico when this image was captured.

Only a few hours later, early in the morning of June 25, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) issued its first advisory on Tropical Storm Enrique. At that time, the newly-formed tropical storm was carrying maximum sustained winds of 40 mph (65 km/h) with higher gusts. The center was located about 325 miles (525 km) south-southeast of Manzanillo, Mexico.

At 11:00 p.m. EDT (0300 UTC) on June 25, Tropical Storm Enrique had moved closer to land and intensified, with maximum sustained winds at 65 mph (100 km/h). It was located about 185 miles (300 km) south of Manzanillo and about 300 miles (485 km) south-southeast of Cabo Corrientes, Mexico. The storm was moving towards the west-northwest at about 9mph (15 km/h), but it is forecast to gradually slow down and turn towards the northwest by June 26.
