Afternoon update: the NHC has moved Frank’s path even further away from us. Frank is being a very good boy! Other than that, no change from this morning in intensity or speed of forward movement. While our water is warming up, the winds are still in our favor. So this is a good thing. Georgette however, is rapidly strengthening. This morning her max sustained winds were a mere 45mph and she has increased to 65mph, as well as her forward motion from 12mph to 14mph. Good … keep on moving Georgette! Also, there are no new areas of interest forming. end update ~2:45pm Cabo Time
Super active East Pacific Ocean, indeed!

I know many are concerned about rain, which is just so unpredictable.
but some of you, just want to know about Frank. I think the images below are pretty self explanatory 😊 The computer models are showing Frank has a preference for the open seas. 😃
