Looks like Frontal low has formed in E Pacific

It looks like a frontal low has formesd on the tail end of a cold front that lies across the Central GOM.I know it will dissapate within 24 hours but when convection like this develops over water you know its getting close to the season. The Pacific hurricane season starts May 15th. A little less than 2 months away.

The EPAC is very precise on its time of activity. There has never been a storm in recorded history outside the May-early December timeframe.

And here is what the NHC says:
"OTHER SIGNIFICANT CONVECTION...SCATTERED MODERATE WITHIN 75 NM OF 11N102W."

They sound pumped about it.
