Hurricane Agatha is expected to become a tropical depression sometime today after hitting Mexico on the Pacific ocean side as a powerful Category 2 hurricane.  But, according to the latest cone of concern, the storm could enter the Gulf of Mexica and regroup as the Atlantic Hurricane season’s first named storm.

It’s already been downgraded to a tropical storm after hitting the coast of southern Mexico yesterday with 105 mile an hour winds.
