At 1000 AM CDT (1500 UTC), the remnants of Harold were located near latitude 30.4 North, longitude 104.4 West. The remnants are moving toward the northwest near 24 mph (39 km/h) and this motion is expected to continue today. The surface low is forecast to become increasingly ill-defined, eventually being absorbed into a thermal trough situated from northern Mexico into New Mexico. This process make the surface reflection of Harold difficult to track beyond this evening. Therefore, this will be the final advisory.
Maximum sustained winds are near 25 mph (35 km/h) with higher gusts.
The estimated minimum central pressure is 1010 mb (29.83 inches).
