[cycloneye]

I am reposting from the Talking tropics thread this discussion that Dr Jeff Masters made today about the possible EPAC development and the historic perspective of this so late in this basin.

Both the tropical Atlantic and Eastern Pacific Oceans are quiet this week, and we are well past the date for the climatological formation of the season's last storm in both basins, particularly in the Eastern Pacific. A major reason for the lack of late-season activity in the Eastern Pacific is due to the cessation of African waves spawned by the African monsoon, which serve as low pressure "seeds" to get the atmosphere spinning and trigger formation of a tropical cyclone. However, the four top models for predicting formation of tropical storms unanimously agree that a tropical storm will form in the Eastern Pacific early next week, thanks to some unusual wave-like motions in the atmosphere that are generating low pressure systems over the Eastern Pacific, similar to African waves. The GFS model is forecasting that we will get not one, but two tropical storms forming in the Eastern Pacific over the next two weeks. Tropical storms are very rare in the Eastern Pacific this late in the year. Since 1949, here have been just three named storms that have formed after November 18. These three storms were an unnamed tropical storm on November 27, 1951; Tropical Storm Sharon on November 27, 1971; and Hurricane Winnie on December 5, 1983. None of these storms hit land, though the 1951 storm grazed the Baja. Next week's storm, if it forms, is expected to move west-northwest, parallel to the Mexican coast, but it is uncertain if it might pose a landfall threat or not.

160 NM EITHER SIDE OF A LINE FROM 9.1N 96.1W TO 10.8N 104.5W
WITHIN THE NEXT 12 TO 24 HOURS. AVAILABLE DATA DOES NOT JUSTIFY
ISSUANCE OF NUMBERED TROPICAL CYCLONE WARNINGS AT THIS TIME.
WINDS IN THE AREA ARE ESTIMATED TO BE 15 TO 20 KNOTS. METSAT IM-
AGERY AT 182000Z INDICATES THAT A CIRCULATION CENTER IS LOCATED
NEAR 9.1N 96.5W. THE SYSTEM IS MOVING WESTWARD AT 02 KNOTS.

96.3W, IS NOW LOCATED NEAR 9.1N 96.5W, APPROXIMATELY 420 NM SOUTH OF
SALINA CRUZ, MEXICO. RECENT ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY

CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC) WITH SOME FORMATIVE BANDING. A 181429Z
SSMIS 37 GHZ IMAGE INDICATES LOW LEVEL CONVECTIVE BANDING WRAPPING
AROUND AND INTO THE LLCC. A 181525Z ASCAT PASS SHOWS 20 KNOT WINDS
ASSOCIATED WITH THE LLCC. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES THAT THE
LLCC IS UNDER A FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH GOOD DIVERGENCE ALOFT
LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 05 DEGREES SOUTH OF AN EAST TO WEST ORIENTATED
SUBTROPICAL RIDGE AXIS AND APPROXIMATELY 05 DEGREES WEST OF AN
ANTICYCLONIC NEAR EQUATORIAL RIDGE CENTER. VERTICAL WINDSHEAR IS
ESTIMATED AT 05-10 KNOTS AND SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES AT 27-28
DEGREES CELSIUS. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 15-
20 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 1007
MB. DUE TO INCREASED CONSOLIDATION OF THE LLCC, THE POTENTIAL FOR
THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE WITHIN THE NEXT 24
HOURS IS HIGH.
