A broad area of low pressure appears to be forming several hundred
miles south-southeast of Acapulco, Mexico. This low is likely to
develop into a tropical depression by early next week and move
northward toward the southern coast of Mexico. Interests in that
region should monitor the progress of this disturbance during the
next several days.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...30 percent
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...80 percent

Showers and thunderstorms associated with a broad area of low
pressure located several hundred miles south of Acapulco, Mexico,
remain disorganized. This low, however, is likely to develop into a
tropical depression late this weekend or early next week while it
moves northward toward the southern coast of Mexico. Interests in
that region should monitor the progress of this disturbance during
the next several days.

Showers and thunderstorms associated with a broad area of low
pressure located about 400 miles south of Acapulco, Mexico, have
increased in organization since yesterday. Conditions appear
favorable for additional development, and this low is likely to
develop into a tropical depression during the next couple of days
while it moves slowly northward. Interests along the southern coast
of Mexico should monitor the progress of this system during the next
several days.

An area of low pressure is located about 400 miles south-southwest
of Acapulco, Mexico. Showers and thunderstorms associated with this
system are gradually becoming better organized, and a tropical
depression is expected to form during the next day or two while the
low moves northward at about 5 mph. Interests along the southern
coast of Mexico should monitor the progress of this system during
the next several days.

The GFS/ECMWF are in good agreement regarding the track of this system and forward speed for the next 4-5 days. The GFS calls for a much stronger hurricane than the ECMWF, however. The GFDL is also similar to the GFS/ECMWF.

The HWRF and UKMET are outliers, however, and both keep the storm offshore in the next 5-6 days (although the UKMEt has the system waiting for the next trough).

As usual with these kinds of storms, it's gonna come down to how much of a weakness there is. Generally global models have a west bias near the coast of Mexico, especially true of the UKMET.

Shower and thunderstorm activity associated with an area of low
pressure located about 400 miles south-southwest of Acapulco,
Mexico, has changed little in organization overnight. However,
environmental conditions are conducive for development, and a
tropical depression is expected to form during the next day or so
while the low moves northward at about 5 mph. Interests along the
southern coast of Mexico should monitor the progress of this system
during the next several days.

Both the 6z GFS and 0z ECMWF keep it offshore now. This time the ECMWF is the bullish one and has this getting blocked, looping, waiting for the next trough and moving north as it curves the Baja Peninsula while the GFS kills it after day 5.

Satellite imagery indicates that shower and thunderstorm activity
associated with an area of low pressure located about 350 miles
southwest of Acapulco, Mexico is becoming better organized, and
that the low's circulation is becoming better defined. If these
trends continue, advisories would be initiated on a tropical
depression later today or tonight while the low moves northwestward
or north-northwestward at about 5 to 10 mph. Interests along the
southern coast of Mexico should continue to monitor the progress of
this system.

TROPICAL DEPRESSION SEVENTEEN-E DISCUSSION NUMBER 1
NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL EP172015
400 PM CDT SAT SEP 26 2015

Satellite imagery suggests that the area of low pressure several
hundred miles southwest of Acapulco, Mexico, has developed a well-
defined circulation and has enough organized deep convection to
be declared a tropical depression. The initial wind speed is set to
30 kt in agreement with a Dvorak estimate from TAFB.

Recent fixes suggest an initial motion of 345/03, but it would not
be surprising if the motion were actually even more northerly. A
slow northward motion is expected during the next 24 to 36 hours as
the depression rounds the western side of a weak mid-level ridge
along 95W. In about 36 h, the cyclone should encounter the
increasing westerly or west-southwesterly flow around a mid- to
upper-level trough over the northwestern Gulf of Mexico and turn
northeastward, a motion that could bring the cyclone's center inland
as predicted by the GFS and HWRF in 72 to 84 hours. An alternative
scenario, supported by the ECMWF, is for the shear to become
prohibitively high just after 72 hours and result in a decoupling
of the cyclone. The shallow remnant circulation would then likely
drift west-northwestward in the low-level flow away from the coast.
The official track forecast brings the center close to the coast in
72 hours but does not explicitly show a landfall. The overall track
forecast is weighted more heavily toward the ECMWF solution which
seems to have a better handle on the depression's initial motion.

Although the waters are plenty warm and the atmospheric moisture
high, westerly shear associated with the mid- to upper-level trough
over the Gulf of Mexico is expected to be an increasingly important
factor in the cyclone's intensification. The shear should not be
high enough initially to prevent a climatological rate of
development during the next day or so. However, global models show
at least 20 kt of shear in 36-48 hours, which makes significant
intensification less likely after that time. The official intensity
forecast is between the statistical and dynamical guidance through
72 h and above the multi-model consensus. Rapid weakening is
forecast after that time, either as a result of the cyclone's moving
inland or the possible decoupling of the cyclone.

I hope this doesn't run into Mexico. The fun of tracking EPAC is that storms are so rarely destructive to people and they always have a small chance of affecting me :P

Unfortunately, this should pass quite close. However, in around three days, the ECMWF and GFS agree on decoupling due to increased shear and even the HWRf/GFDL weaken this quite a bit prior to landfall in around 70 hours.

There is talk of this one becoming Marty. What do you think the chances of it doing so then decoupling before landfall?

Trust me, I am no where close to knowing what I am talking about so please do not take what I say as official info. I am not a professional nor do I play one on TV. I did however, stay at a Holiday Inn once! Have a great day!
