508 ABPZ20 KNHC 131732 TWOEP Tropical Weather Outlook NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL 1100 AM PDT Thu Sep 13 2018 For the eastern North Pacific...east of 140 degrees west longitude: A broad area of low pressure, located roughly a couple of hundred miles west-southwest of Cabo Corrientes, Mexico, is producing limited shower and thunderstorm activity. Upper-level winds are not particularly conducive for further organization, so any development of this system should be slow to occur over the next few days while the disturbance drifts west-southwestward. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent. An area of low pressure is expected to develop well south of the southwestern coast of Mexico over the weekend. Thereafter, environmental conditions appear conducive for gradual development, and a tropical depression could form while the system moves generally westward to west-northwestward at 10 to 15 mph south of Mexico. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...medium...40 percent. $$ Forecaster Blake
