As of 11am on 10/27 Rina has weakened to a tropical storm as expected. Additional weakening is forecast as strong wind shear impacts the circulation. Regardless of strength heavy rainfall will be an issue on the Yucatan Peninsula as the storm rakes the coast. Additionally the system may loop back southward prolonging those chances, resulting in flooding of some areas.
