Genevieve May Strengthen at Sea, Surf Impacts Noted
Genevieve in the eastern Pacific is expected to rapidly intensify into a major hurricane, potentially reaching Category 3 with winds around 125 mph, while remaining largely at sea though swells could affect Mexico’s coast and California with dangerous surf and rip currents. Nearby, Fausto remains a Category 2 hurricane, and forecasters note rapid intensification is more likely in a warming ocean, with potential broader impacts such as a later heat wave in the U.S. Southwest and western states.
