000 ABPZ20 KNHC 120543 TWOEP Tropical Weather Outlook NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL 1100 PM PDT Fri Oct 11 2019 For the eastern North Pacific...east of 140 degrees west longitude: A large area of showers and thunderstorms centered several hundred miles south-southwest of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula is associated with an elongated area of low pressure. Satellite images suggest that the system is gradually consolidating, and a tropical depression is expected to form during the next day or so while the system moves northward at 5 to 10 mph. By early next week, however, additional development is not expected due to cooler waters and stronger upper-level winds. * Formation chance through 48 hours...high...90 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...high...90 percent. An area of low pressure located a few hundred miles south-southeast of Acapulco, Mexico, is producing disorganized showers and thunderstorms to the west of the center. Strong upper-level winds should limit development of this system during the next couple of days while the low moves little. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent. A broad area of low pressure is forecast to form south of the coast of southeastern Mexico early next week. Gradual development of this system is possible after that time while it moves west-northwestward off the coast of Mexico. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...medium...40 percent. $$ Forecaster Cangialosi
