Flossie fizzles as former hurricane pulls away from Mexico

Flossie was the third hurricane and the second major hurricane to form in the Eastern Pacific during the 2025 hurricane season.

What was Tropical Storm Flossie has essentially fizzled out as it churned through cooler water temperatures southwest of Mexico's Baja California.

Flossie was once a Category 3 hurricane in the Eastern Pacific when it made its closest approach to areas north of Manzanillo, Mexico, earlier this week.

The Mexican government had issued Tropical Storm Warnings and Tropical Storm Watches for southwestern areas of the country, but all alerts have been discontinued.

Flossie produced large swells that impacted beaches from the Baja California Peninsula through southwestern Mexico.

Flossie was the third hurricane and the second major hurricane to form in the Eastern Pacific during the 2025 hurricane season.

"All intents and purposes, this has been a record-breaking start to the Eastern Pacific hurricane season," said FOX Weather Meteorologist Stephen Morgan. "We've had six named storms, three hurricanes – two of them strengthened into major hurricanes."

The Eastern Pacific hurricane season runs from May 15 to Nov. 30.
