THE CENTER IS ALREADY WELL INLAND OVER THE STATE OF OAXACA MEXICO. SOME MODELS BRING STAN TO THE PACIFIC WHERE REGENERATION IS POSSIBLE. ON THE OTHER HAND...SOME OTHER MODELS BRING A PORTION OF THE CIRCULATION BACK OVER THE GULF OF MEXICO. THE OFFICIAL FORECAST CALLS FOR DISSIPATION OVER THE HIGH TERRAIN IN ABOUT 12 HOURS. I WAS TEMPTED TO WRITE THE LAST ADVISORY BUT THIS IS A LARGE SYSTEM WHICH IS STILL PRODUCING 25 TO 30-KNOT WINDS OVER WATER ON THE BAY OF CAMPECHE AND ON THE PACIFIC SIDE. THE MAIN THREAT FROM STAN CONTINUES TO BE VERY HEAVY RAINFALL...WITH LIFE-THREATENING FLASH FLOODS AND MUDSLIDES LIKELY.
