Ocean swells generated by Bonnie "are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions," NHC said in an advisory. The Mexican meteorological service warned that the hurricane could result in intense rains, mudslides, floods, strong wind gusts and ocean waves up to 16 feet along the country's southern Pacific coast.Reporting by Jackie Botts in Oaxaca City and Noe Torres in Mexico City; Editing by Paul Simao and Bradley Perrett
