NASA-NOAA’s Suomi NPP satellite captured this visible image of Hurricane Seymour in the eastern Pacific Ocean on Tuesday.

Hurricane Seymour is starting to rapidly weaken as it encounters wind shear and moves into cooler waters several hundred miles off the coast of Mexico today.

At 5 p.m., the hurricane was moving northwest at 14 mph about 815 miles west-southwest of Baja California, Mexico.

At this point, the storm is expected to stay far off shore and is not a threat to land.

Sustained winds were at 110 miles per hour, down from a peak of about 150 mph Tuesday.

Forecasters in Honolulu said Seymour should send surf to east shores of the Hawaiian islands this weekend.

Some of the moisture associated with Seymour could also bring rains to Central and Southern California this weekend.
