I'm sorry to hear about the awful timing. I hope it doesn't spoil your vacation.
I personally think this will be classified at 2 PM PDT today. Does anyone think it will become Boris if it is upgraded at that time?

Not likely. Conditions are favorable, and this is close to a TD already IMO. And it's moving slowly. The posts in this forum are NOT official forecast and should not be used as such. They are just the opinion of the poster and may or may not be backed by sound meteorological data. They are NOT endorsed by any professional institution or storm2k.org.

That pressure reminds me of Manuel last year when it started off with <1005 mbar. Anyway, I think an upgrade is likely very soon.

Both 93E and Manuel were large, hence the low pressure.

Maybe because the recent ASCAT pass hasn't shown any 30kt winds? Doubt that's the case though.
DT values from both satellite agencies are still at 1.0/1.0

I certainly think it will be upgraded soon. Most likely it will because the Best Track has been updated to 30 knots and the NHC does not usually classify depressions below 30 knots (although Amanda became a depression at 25 knots). The structure is also pretty well defined with that large area of very cold convection in the center.

ASCAT tends to have a low bias. And the ATCF is at 30 knts anyway.

TROPICAL DEPRESSION TWO-E DISCUSSION NUMBER 1
NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL EP022014
200 PM PDT MON JUN 02 2014
The low pressure area located south of the Gulf of Tehuantepec
has acquired enough organized deep convection to be classified as a
tropical depression. The initial intensity is set at 25 kt, which
is based Dvorak classifications from TAFB and SAB, and a ship
observation within the eastern portion of the circulation.
Environmental conditions, consisting of low vertical wind shear and
warm sea surface temperatures, favor intensification during the next
few days. The primary limiting factors are likely to be the
large and sprawling structure of the cyclone and interaction
with land later in the forecast period.
The somewhat uncertain initial motion estimate is 330 degrees at 3
kt. The depression is forecast to move slowly northwestward to
northward between a mid to upper-level ridge over the
west-central Caribbean Sea and a mid- to upper-level trough
extending southwestward across the western Gulf of Mexico. While
most of the global models agree on a general northwestward to
northward motion during the next several days, there are large
differences in the forward speed of the cyclone, and how soon
the center nears the coast in the model predictions. The GFS shows a
faster motion and brings the cyclone to the coast within 2 to 3
days. On the other hand, the ECMWF keeps the depression offshore
for more than 5 days. The NHC forecast generally lies between these
scenarios and shows a slow motion toward the coast of the Gulf
of Tehuantepec. Due to the high amount of uncertainty on the
timing of the approach to southern Mexico, a tropical storm watch
has been issued for a portion of the coast of southeastern Mexico.
FORECAST POSITIONS AND MAX WINDS
INIT 02/2100Z 13.1N 94.1W 25 KT 30 MPH
12H 03/0600Z 13.5N 94.6W 30 KT 35 MPH

Re: EPAC: TWO-E - Tropical Depression
5-day track highly uncertain. Major differences in the models as far as the track AND intensity. It may not ever reach the Mexico coast.

For now, yes. I don't have much confidence in the GFS' track.

Maybe a chance to become a Hurricane with the slow movement?

Very, very slow.
I can't recall the last time a system near the GOT was suppose to move this slow.
