From the 2205Z TWD

A 1008 MB LOW IS CENTERED NEAR 13N102W...ABOUT 260 NM SSW OF
ACAPULCO MEXICO...MOVING WNW A LITTLE FASTER AT 15-20 KT. THE
CONTINUES TO DISPLAY A BROAD CIRCULATION WITH DISORGANIZED
CLUSTER OF DEEP CONVECTION ROTATING MAINLY AROUND THE E AND N
SEMICIRCLES. UPPER LEVEL OUTFLOW IS RELATIVELY GOOD AROUND THE
SYSTEM...EXCEPT IS SOMEWHAT LIMITED OVER THE NW QUADRANT.
CONDITIONS WILL REMAIN FAVORABLE FOR TROPICAL DEVELOPMENT WITHIN
THE NEXT 36 HRS. IN FACT...MODEL GUIDANCE REMAINS BULLISH WITH
FORMATION...EVEN MORE SO THAN FOR T.S. BUD. SCATTERED
MODERATE/STRONG CONVECTION FROM 9N-16N BETWEEN 94W-105W.

That is one of the most beautiful invests I have ever seen. How close is she to Bud? Could there be a Fujiwara dance between the two?

You can half see it in this shot, the rest of it is under the blacked out part.

90# should be moving over warmer waters soon, this will greatly strengthen this Invest.

They said a TD could form later tonight. That would crush my prediction of it becoming a TD tomorrow afternoon.

Using the SSD estimates, they are about 620 nautical miles away from each other...Bud is moving wnw at 8 knots... 90E is moving wnw at 15-20 (TWD said 15-20, the TCFA said 15 knots, those extra few knots would make a difference)...hmm...

Nice!! I was wrong on that one. Crow for me.

The Eastern Pacific Season is starting to heat up now. 4 TC's so far. Will TD 4-E follow in Bud's footsteps?
