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

Systems with the potential to become a tropical cyclone during the
next 48 hours...

An elongated area of low pressure located several hundred miles
southwest of Acapulco, Mexico, is producing a large area of
showers and thunderstorms.  Although this system lacks a
well-defined center of circulation, it is still producing winds to
near gale force in the eastern portion of the disturbance.
Development of this system should be slow to occur during the next
couple of days, unless a new center reforms farther east. After
that time, environmental conditions are expected to become
unfavorable for development.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent
