A tropical wave is producing a large area of disorganized showers
and thunderstorms about 1100 miles southwest of the southern tip of
the Baja California peninsula. Development, if any, of this system
is expected to be slow to occur during the next several days while
it moves westward at low latitudes.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent.

SHIPS too bullish there? :uarrow:

:uarrow: Yes. Too much shear. Regardless if this becomes classified or not, this will likely pulsate in convection for the next several days.

Modest EPS support @ 12z as well. Probably will look nice for a little bit before it gets sheared off.

A tropical wave is producing a large area of showers and
thunderstorms about 1200 miles southwest of the southern tip of
the Baja California peninsula. This system has become better
organized during the past 24 hours, and further development is
possible during the next several days while it moves quickly
westward.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...30 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...40 percent.

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

1. A tropical wave is producing a large area of showers and
thunderstorms centered about 1250 miles southwest of the southern
tip of the Baja California peninsula. This system continues to
show some signs of organization
, and further development is possible
during the next several days while it moves quickly westward.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...30 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...40 percent.

Blake keeps the odds low probably because the GFS is not too bullish. Euro makes this a decent TS.

A broad area of low pressure located about 1300 miles southwest of
the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula continues to
produce a large area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms.
Environmental conditions appear conducive for gradual development of
this system while it moves quickly westward during the next few
days.

Satellite wind data indicate that the broad area of low pressure
located about 1400 miles southwest of the southern tip of the Baja
California peninsula has become less organized since yesterday.
Since the overall environment still appears to be conducive for
development, some gradual organization is possible during the next
few days while the system moves westward at 15 to 20 mph.

An elongated area of low pressure located about 1500 miles southwest
of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula is producing
disorganized cloudiness and showers. Some slow development of this
system is possible during the next couple of days before upper-level
winds become too strong for development. This system is expected to
move westward at 15 to 20 mph and cross into the Central Pacific
basin late this weekend.

Showers and thunderstorms remain disorganized in association with
a broad low pressure area located about 1500 miles southwest of the
southern tip of the Baja California peninsula. Some slow
development of this system is possible during the next couple of
days before upper-level winds become too strong for development.
This system is expected to move westward at 15 to 20 mph and cross
into the Central Pacific basin late this weekend.

This is actually looking better but this is not forming.

Past couple of MW passes confirm low level banding. Which would mean there's a pretty decent LLC. So unless ASCAT or someone who is a low level visible viewing hawk say else wise, I would say this is close to a TD.

Showers and thunderstorms associated with a broad area of low
pressure are located a little more than 1600 miles west-southwest
of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula. The shower
activity has become less organized, and the system is heading toward
unfavorable upper-level winds. The low is expected to move westward
at 15 to 20 mph and cross into the Central Pacific basin late this
weekend or early Monday with no significant development.

Showers and thunderstorms associated with an area of low pressure
located about 1700 miles west-southwest of the southern tip of the
Baja California peninsula have become a little better organized
since yesterday. However, the system is already embedded within
unfavorable upper-level winds and additional development appears
unlikely. The low is expected to move westward at 15 to 20 mph and
cross into the Central Pacific basin on late Sunday or early Monday.
