Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
500 PM PDT Fri Oct 5 2018

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

The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Hurricane
Sergio, located almost 1000 miles west-southwest of the southern
tip of the Baja California peninsula.

An area of low pressure located offshore the Pacific coast of
southern Nicaragua is showing some signs of organization. However,
the system is expected to drift northward over the next day or two
and move inland over Central America on Saturday, which will end
the opportunity for tropical cyclone formation.  Regardless of
development, heavy rains will continue across western Costa Rica,
Nicaragua, Honduras, El Salvador, and Guatemala through early next
week, resulting in flash floods and mudslides in mountainous areas
of those countries.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...30 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...30 percent.
