For the eastern North Pacific...east of 140 degrees west longitude:

Showers and thunderstorms associated with a low pressure system
located several hundred miles south-southwest of the southern tip
of the Baja California peninsula continue to show some signs of
organization.  Environmental conditions are expected to be
conducive for additional development while the system moves
west-northwestward at about 15 mph, and a tropical depression is
likely to form by early next week before the low reaches colder
waters.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...70 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...80 percent.
