The Remnants of Hanna
The circulation of Hanna no longer appears to be well defined
based on satellite imagery and surface observations. Since the
cyclone center has dissipated, this will be the final advisory on
the remnants of Hanna.
While cloud top temperatures have warmed markedly near the earlier
estimated center location, heavy rainfall remains a significant
threat. The remnants of Hanna could produce 3 to 5 inches (75 to
125 mm) of rain, with isolated maximum amounts of 9 inches (230
mm), across Honduras and northern Nicaragua. These rains could
produce flash flooding and mud slides.

NEMO: TROPICAL STORM HANNA - LANDFALL ON HONDURAS
Monday 27th October, 2014 as at 2:00 p.m.
The National Emergency Management Organization (NEMO) hereby informs the public that as of 3:00 p.m., the center of Tropical Storm (TS) #Hanna was located near 14.6N 83.9W over northeastern Nicaragua. Maximum sustained winds remain at 40 miles per hour and TS Hanna was moving towards the west at 7 miles per hour. The National Hurricane Center in Miami, Florida has Tropical Storm Hanna heading deeper into Nicaragua and Honduras. On the present track the center of circulation is expected to remain inland along the border of Honduras and Nicaragua. This track over land will weaken the system.
Tropical Storm Hanna currently poses no significant threat to Belize, however, its proximity will support some showers and thunderstorms around the country during the next 24 to 36 hours.
The Rio Hondo and Mopan Rivers are rising slowly. The Low-lying Bridge and the Iguana Creek Bridge on the Macal River are at flood state. Both the Baking Pot and Succotz ferries remain closed.
