Some development of this system is possible while it moves eastward and then southeastward during the next couple of days, and a tropical depression could still form before it becomes absorbed by a larger weather disturbance near the coast of Mexico over the weekend. * Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...40 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...medium...40 percent. An elongated trough of low pressure is developing near the coast of southern and southwestern Mexico and is producing several clusters of disorganized showers and thunderstorms. A low is expected to form along this trough during the next couple of days, and it is likely to become a tropical depression over the weekend or early next week while it moves west-northwestward to northwestward at 10 to 15 mph near the southern and southwestern coasts of Mexico. Regardless of development, heavy rainfall, with the possibility of flash flooding and mudslides, is likely along the Pacific coasts of Central America and southern and southwestern Mexico during the next several days. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...30 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...high...80 percent. $$ Forecaster Berg
