Eastern Pacific Convection

#1 Postby Meso » Thu Jun 12, 2008 3:50 am

A small flare up of convection around 117W 10N has appeared and while development is unlikely,MM5 has shown something in that area forming soon and the other models show something in the Eastern Pacific forming within the next 5 days or so.Just something to watch until it goes 'poof' I guess,it's still attached to the ITCZ too.

Loop

Edit : Interesting,new GFS run shows something in that general area in 42 hours

Looks to me that the orgnial area that they were watching has decayed quite a bit on the northern side and now the best looking portion is probably attached to the ITCZ anyway.

Well I think this thread needs to be bumped because the ITCZ has come alive in the EPAC, plenty of deep convection present between 10-15N at the moment which may need watching eventually. Not being watched by the TWO yet but if anywhere becomes better established it may need to be watched.

Low shear is very interesting, if anything can get going then no reason why it wouldn't strengthen. ECM showing a system forming in about 120-144hrs in the EPAC, maybe out of the ITCZ mess we have at the moment.

It seems like the models want to try and develop something in the EPAC but hasn't really focused on one area for development any time soon. Still just a mess of convection out there.

Still quite a while out but the ECM has been pretty consitant in developing a EPAC system so we shall see eventually.

1. THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY CONTINUES IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE SMALL AREA
OF LOW PRESSURE LOCATED ABOUT 800 MILES SOUTH-SOUTHWEST OF THE
SOUTHERN TIP OF BAJA CALIFORNIA. ALTHOUGH SOME LIMITED DEVELOPMENT
IS POSSIBLE OVER THE NEXT DAY OR TWO...THE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO

FAVORABLE FOR TROPICAL CYCLONE DEVELOPMENT.

ELSEWHERE...TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION IS NOT EXPECTED DURING THE

Yep whilst 93E didn't do anything I woulsn't be surprised if we see another area of intrest given there is still some fairly deep convection present out there in the EPAC.
