Hurricane Simon Live Tracking Map

Based on current track, wind field, and forecast intensity, StormAtlas evaluates the overall risk level for Simon as EXTREME. Primary potential hazards include: Destructive hurricane-force winds, catastrophic storm surge, and widespread flooding.

Simon achieved maximum sustained winds of approximately 238 km/h (129 kt / 148 mph) and a minimum central pressure of approximately 938 hPa.

Multiple numerical weather prediction models project Simon to continue along its predicted track. Check the interactive map above for updated path and uncertainty cone.

Simon is projected to make landfall near Mexico, Jalisco, Puerto Vallarta around October 12, 2026 at 12:49 AM with an estimated intensity of Tropical Depression.

According to current forecasts, Simon is expected to pass approximately 242 km from Acapulco, presenting a moderate risk of wind and rain impacts.

Based on current forecast models, Simon is expected to begin affecting Acapulco or pass closest around October 11, 2026 at 12:00 AM. Please continue monitoring official updates and prepare accordingly.

Based on track data, Simon is expected to remain approximately 452 km from Cabo San Lucas, with minimal direct threats currently anticipated.

Current forecast data is insufficient to determine direct impacts for Corpus Christi from Simon. Please monitor future track updates.

Projected rainfall totals of approximately 150-300 mm (6-12 inches) may occur in affected areas, creating risks of flash flooding and urban flooding.

Yes. Tropical systems carry abundant moisture, and outer rainbands can trigger flash flooding, river flooding, and urban flooding.

Current numerical models project potential storm surge of approximately 9-15 ft (2.7-4.5 m) in low-lying coastal areas.

Adjust preparations based on the storm category and official advice. Secure outdoor items, prepare emergency supplies, keep backup power available, and follow official advisories.

Evacuation decisions must strictly follow official directives issued by local emergency management agencies. If an evacuation order is issued, evacuate immediately using designated routes. Do not rely solely on a single forecast model.

StormAtlas regularly updates based on publicly available data from international meteorological agencies. The latest data update was at October 10, 2026 at 03:11 PM.

Simon developed over warm ocean waters under conditions of high atmospheric moisture and low vertical wind shear.

The forecast path integrates data from multiple international meteorological agencies and numerical weather prediction models (such as NHC, JMA, JTWC, and CMA) using ensemble forecasting methods to generate probabilistic forecast tracks.
