Hurricane Blanca has been downgraded to a tropical storm, but it is still slamming Mexico's Baja California penninsula with flooding rains, Accuweather reported.

Sunday, Blanca had maximum sustained winds of 110 miles per hour, CNN reported.

"The center of Blanca will approach the southwest coast of the Baja California peninsula later today and move near or along the coast tonight and Monday," the National Hurricane Center said Sunday.

Early Monday morning, Blanca made landfall near Puerto Cortes, Mexico, as a tropical storm.

Last week, Blanca developed into a major hurricane, making it the earliest second major hurricane in the eastern Pacific. In the past, there have only been four other seasons that have had two major hurricanes develop before the end of June.

Blanca lost its hurricane strength when it reached significantly cooler waters south of the Baja California peninsula. By Monday night, it will track closer to land and weaken even further and is expected to be downgraded to a tropical depression.

Heavy rains will still be a risk to the Central Baja peninsula through Monday night. That area can expect to receive three to six inches of rain. Heavier rains are expected across the northern half of Baja California Sur and nearby Baja California Norte.

As the storm weakens, the risk of heavy windows diminishes.

Tuesday, moisture from the storm system will continue to move across Baja California Norte and northwestern Sonora. That could result in some isolated flooding, but winds will no longer be an issue with this storm by then.

Blanca will leave its mark as it weakens with rain and thunderstorms in the southwestern U.S., Accuweather Senior Meteorologist Alex Sosnowski reports.

Some of these areas are in need of rain, but if too much rain falls too fast, some cases of flooding could occur.
