2 Eastern Pacific Storms Form

For the eastern North Pacific...east of 140 degrees west longitude:
There are currently 2 storms that have very good chances of becoming hurricanes. Just stay informed and prepared. One of these will go way north and should be of little concern,
but the other, currently 97E could come near and give us some rains.


1. A low pressure system located a couple of hundred miles south of the
southern coast of Mexico continues to produce a large area of
cloudiness and thunderstorms.  Environmental conditions are
conducive for development, and a tropical depression is likely to
form during the next day or so while the low moves west-
northwestward at 10 to 15 mph, parallel to and just offshore of the
coast of Mexico.  This system could produce heavy rainfall and flash
flooding over portions of southeastern Mexico during the next couple
of days.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...80 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...90 percent.

2. Another low pressure system located more than 900 miles
west-southwest of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula
is producing disorganized showers and a few thunderstorms.
Environmental conditions are expected to become more conducive for
development by mid-week, and a tropical depression is likely to form
during the next few days while the system moves westward to
west-northwestward at about 10 mph.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...60 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...80 percent.
