#1 Postby cycloneye » Sat Sep 12, 2015 7:59 pm

90E INVEST 150913 0000 12.5N 108.5W EPAC 20 1006


An area of disturbed weather has formed about 700 miles south of
the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula. Some slow
development of this system is possible over the next few days as it
moves generally northwestward at about 10 mph.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent

Not likely to be much. The UKEMT and GFS and ECMWF don't have this system I don't think. The NOGAPS and CMC do however.

Basically no change all day.

An area of disturbed weather is located about 650 miles south of
the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula. Some slow
development of this system is possible over the next few days while
it moves generally northwestward at about 10 mph.

A broad area of low pressure located several hundred miles south of
the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula is producing
disorganized showers and thunderstorms. Some slow development is
possible during the next several days as the system moves generally
northwestward at 5 to 10 mph.

Looks like sheer in the EPAC is too high to allow development right now which means we might not even get to Olaf for the season, let alone the entire alphabet. On another note, San Diego's SST hit that elusive 80 F mark over the weekend; not sure what the SST are in within the zone between the coastline and Baja but I bet if the EPAC becomes favorable for TC development sometime in the next 2-3 weeks and we have another "Baja hugger" with an early fall trough to push the TC inland in far Southern California, I still say we could get that one hundred year event, possibly a repeat of the 1858 San Diego hurricane.

Yah, I know yall still think I'm crazy but history repeats itself and there's no such thing as a one time event in weather.

Shear is high since we are in a suppressed CCKW phase. We should get to Olaf, and possibly even to Rick.

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

1. A weak low pressure area located several hundred miles south-
southwest of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula
continues to produce disorganized shower and thunderstorm activity.
Some gradual development of this system is possible by this weekend
while it moves slowly west-northwestward or northwestward.

Models are predicting a good chance of rain next week at this time in San Diego (very rare in September and only after getting a deluge yesterday from the remnants of Linda) so it looks like it would come from the remnants of this tropical low pressure system that only has 20 percent chance of forming into a TC.

Maybe it will become a TD and almost sustain itself as such on the way here without ever getting a name?

It's unprecedented to have even more than one rain event in coastal SoCal in summer and this summer, I've counted seeing rainfall on 7 separate days so far in San Diego (I'm counting September as a summer month since it is our hottest month here).

Not an invest, but ex-90E is at 20/30.


A large area of disorganized cloudiness and thunderstorms located
several hundred miles south of the southern tip of the Baja
California peninsula is associated with a weak area of low
pressure. Some gradual development of this system is possible by
this weekend while it moves slowly northwestward.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...30 percent

UKMET and ECMWF both develop this in 3 days before racing north-northwest and getting torn apart by southwesterly shear.

Regardless of development, additional moisture in the SW US is likely.

Will cross fingers in hopes that we still at least get rain from this. So sorry to see it not really doing anything. This year has been so active for us.
