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

1. An elongated area of low pressure located several hundred miles 
south-southwest of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula 
continues to produce a large area of disorganized cloudiness and 
thunderstorms. This system is forecast to move generally 
eastward for the next couple of days. Conditions appear favorable 
for gradual development and a tropical depression is likely to form 
during the early to middle part of next week when the system is 
expected to slow and meander off the coast of Mexico.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...30 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...70 percent.

2. Another area of low pressure is likely to form south of the Gulf of 
Tehuantepec early next week.  A tropical depression could form by 
the middle of next week while the system moves slowly northwestward 
or northward, near or parallel to the southwestern coast of Mexico.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...40 percent.
