Eastern and Central East Pacific:
A tropical wave located a few hundred miles southwest of the coast 
of Guatemala continues to produce a large area of disorganized 
showers and thunderstorms. Gradual development of this system is 
expected, and a tropical depression is likely to form on Friday or 
Saturday, while it moves generally west-northwestward at 10 to 15 
mph, remaining well offshore of Mexico.

Well Southwest of Hawaii:
A trough of low pressure located well southwest of the Hawaiian

Environmental conditions appear conducive for some gradual 
development of this system, and a tropical depression is likely to 
form over the weekend or early next week while the system moves 
slowly westward to west-northwestward. The system is forecast to 
move into the western Pacific basin on Sunday (Hawaiian Standard
