CPAC: Tropical Depression Kika

1. Persistent thunderstorms associated with a well defined surface trough about 1200 miles east southeast of Hilo, Hawaii remain disorganized this evening. However, this system may become better organized as it moves westward at about 10 mph during the next couple of days. Therefore, this area will be closely monitored for any signs of development.

The next name for a CPac storm would be Kika, right?

Correct.


It needs to almost stay due west. A few degrees north and the water gets too cold.

Yep this does look pretty interesting given the way its wrapping up I'd guess its a tropical depression right now.

Needs to stay below 12N though as others have said if its going to go on to anything more impressive however.

Loop: http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/goes/flt/t7/loop-vis.html

When convection increases by tomorrow's DMAX, we could see a depression or storm. Looks very well organized.

Looks like this will probably get named Kika within the next several days. This would be the first named Central Pacific storm in 2 years, since Ioke in 2006.
