A large area of disturbed weather associated with a trough of low

southwestern coast of Mexico.  Environmental conditions appear 
conducive for development, and a tropical depression is 
expected to form within the next few days before the system 
reaches cooler waters later this weekend.  This system is 
forecast to move west-northwestward at about 15 mph away from
the coast of southwestern Mexico.

Another area of low pressure is expected to form in a few days over
