The U.S. National Hurricane Center says Hurricane Patricia has now degraded to tropical depression status over northern Mexico.

Patricia was once the strongest hurricane on record in the Western Hemisphere, but it has weakened rapidly since hitting land Friday evening.

By midmorning Saturday, the storm had sustained winds of 35 mph (55 kph) and it was located about 95 miles (155 kilometers) northeast of Zacatecas.

Remnants of the storm are expected to help feed rains over southern Texas.
