000 ACPN50 PHFO 310545 TWOCP Tropical Weather Outlook NWS Central Pacific Hurricane Center Honolulu HI 800 PM HST Sun Jul 30 2023 For the central North Pacific...between 140W and 180W: The National Hurricane Center in Miami, Florida is monitoring an area of low pressure (Invest EP96) located offshore of southern Mexico (east of 118W). Showers and thunderstorms continue to show signs of organization in association with this system. Although recent satellite wind data indicates that the system still does not have a well-defined center, environmental conditions appear favorable for development, and a tropical depression is likely to form within a day or two while the system moves generally westward near 15 mph. This system could move into the Central Pacific Hurricane Center area of responsibility late next weekend. Elsewhere, no tropical cyclones are expected during the next 7 days. $$ Forecaster M Ballard
