Hurricane Polo Live Tracking Map

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

Polo achieved maximum sustained winds of approximately 284 km/h (153 kt / 176 mph) and a minimum central pressure of approximately 892 hPa.

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

Polo is projected to make landfall near Mexico, Baja California Sur, Ciudad Insurgentes around September 29, 2026 at 02:23 AM with an estimated intensity of Tropical Depression.

According to current forecasts, Polo is expected to pass approximately 287 km from Acapulco, presenting a moderate risk of wind and rain impacts.

Based on current forecast models, Polo is expected to begin affecting Acapulco or pass closest around September 29, 2026 at 12:00 PM. Please continue monitoring official updates and prepare accordingly.

Based on track data, Polo is expected to remain approximately 391 km from Cabo San Lucas, with minimal direct threats currently anticipated.

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

Current forecast data is insufficient to determine direct impacts for Houston from Polo. 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 September 29, 2026 at 03:59 AM.

Polo 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.
