TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
1100 PM PDT TUE MAY 27 2008

FOR THE EASTERN NORTH PACIFIC...EAST OF 140 DEGREES WEST LONGITUDE..

A BROAD AREA OF LOW PRESSURE IS CENTERED A COUPLE HUNDRED MILES WEST
OF COSTA RICA...AND IS PRODUCING WIDESPREAD SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM
ACTIVITY THAT EXTENDS WEST-SOUTHWESTWARD FROM CENTRAL AMERICA FOR
SEVERAL HUNDRED MILES.  GRADUAL DEVELOPMENT OF THIS SYSTEM IS
POSSIBLE...AND IT COULD BECOME A TROPICAL DEPRESSION WITHIN THE NEXT
COUPLE OF DAYS AS IT DRIFTS EASTWARD OR NORTHEASTWARD.  REGARDLESS
OF DEVELOPMENT...LOCALLY HEAVY RAINS ARE EXPECTED OVER PORTIONS OF
PANAMA...COSTA RICA...AND NICARAGUA DURING THE NEXT DAY OR
TWO...AND THESE RAINS COULD CAUSE LIFE-THREATENING FLASH FLOODS AND
MUD SLIDES.
