The storm isn’t moving very fast: just about 5 km/h to the west. It is expected to move to the southwest on Saturday and then turn toward the west-northwest.
As of Friday afternoon, the storm’s maximum sustained winds were 65 km/h. Vance is expected to strengthen into a hurricane by Sunday.
The good news is that the storm should weaken before it affects Mexico by Tuesday or Wednesday.
