TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
1100 AM PDT TUE OCT 6 2015

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

1. Disorganized showers and thunderstorms are associated with a
tropical wave located about 1000 miles south-southwest of the
southern tip of the Baja California peninsula. Environmental
conditions are expected to be conducive for gradual development of
this system later this week while the low moves west-northwestward.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...40 percent

Correct me if I'm wrong please, but wasn't 95E already used for Marty's remnants?

Showers and thunderstorms associated with a tropical wave located
about 1200 miles south-southwest of the southern tip of the Baja
California peninsula have become better organized since yesterday.
Environmental conditions are expected to be conducive for
development, and a tropical depression is likely to form by the
weekend while the system moves west-northwestward at about 15 mph.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...40 percent
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...70 percent

1. An area of disturbed weather centered about 1850 miles east- southeast of Hilo, Hawaii is moving west at 15 to 20 miles per hour. Scattered thunderstorms continue around this low pressure area with environmental conditions conducive for further development. The disturbance may develop into a tropical depression before crossing 140°W, which may occur as early as Saturday. Since the area of interest is east of 140°W refer to the national hurricane center's tropical weather outlook, under AWIPS header MIATWOEP and WMO header abpz20 KNHC, for additional details.

I know many have not been paying attention, but this has a chance to become a very powerful hurricane. Wind shear is very very low, waters are quite warm, and this will have a CCKW support, and likely excellent outflow both poleward and equatorward.

HWRF and GFDL each forecast a sub-965 mbar, along with the GFS. ECMWF is much less aggressive, so there is some uncertainty.

TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
NWS CENTRAL PACIFIC HURRICANE CENTER HONOLULU HI
147 PM HST THU OCT 8 2015

For the central north Pacific, between 140°W and 180.

1. An area of disturbed weather centered about 1850 miles east- southeast of Hilo, Hawaii is moving west at 15 to 20 miles per hour.
Scattered thunderstorms continue around this low pressure area with environmental conditions conducive for further development.
The disturbance may develop into a tropical depression before crossing 140°W, which may occur as early as Saturday.
Since the area of interest is east of 140°W refer to the national hurricane center's tropical weather outlook, under AWIPS header MIATWOEP and WMO header abpz20 KNHC, for additional details.

* Formation chance through 48 hours, medium, 60 percent elsewhere, no tropical cyclones are expected through Saturday afternoon.

Lots of uncertainty as the models continue to have different opinions on whether that high builds back.

Shower and thunderstorm activity has become a little better
organized in association with a tropical wave located about 1500
miles southwest of the southern tip of the Baja California
peninsula. Environmental conditions are forecast to be conducive
for further development, and a tropical depression is likely to form
by the weekend or early next week while the system moves
west-northwestward at 15 to 20 mph.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...60 percent

Only model that does that is the CMC. The rest are in excellent agreement in the short-medium range, with some uncertainty on the forward speed and angle of re-curve.

The GFS continues to forecast a powerful hurricane near 145W in the upcoming days. The GFS run shows virtually no shear, and an excellent outflow channel from the north and the south-southwest, typical of extremely intense Pacific hurricanes. However, the 12z ECMWF shows only a minimal hurricane, with even that appears to be an outlier based on the ensemble probabilities, mean, and control. Main reason for the difference is that the ECMWF does not show much of a SSW outflow channel developing, perhaps due to a weaker CCKW.

Euro now even further west and weaker. I'm agreeing that it's likely to be the outlier and it may be windshield wiping considering it was in line with other models yesterday.

I find it hard to dimiss the best model we have. ECMWF doesn't do much with it through 48 hours. Right now, this is almost a TD. If we see little development within 24-36 hours, then, I'd largely agree with it.

HWRF has backed off quite a bit and is now in line with the ECMWF.

Shower and thunderstorm activity have become better organized in
association with a low pressure area located about 1650 miles
east-southeast of the Hawaiian Islands. Environmental conditions
are conducive, and a tropical depression is expected to form later
today or tonight while the system moves west-northwestward at about
15 mph.
