Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1100 AM PDT Tue Jul 10 2018

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

A broad area of low pressure has developed a little over 1000 miles
southwest of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula.
Environmental conditions appear conducive for gradual development
during the next few days as the system moves west-northwestward at
about 10 mph.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent

Based on that SHIPS run this actually has a decent chance to become TS Gilma and enter the CPAC.

SHIPS has this reaching some bizarre latitude when this will likely just track west and be a southern clipper. Quite frankly, who knows if it will develop - storms at this latitude in July or early August tend to be unpredictable.

Lots of shear and outflow boundaries right now near this invest, might have to wait until it gets in the CPAC for better conditions, if that.

It's actually still on track with 2009, 2014, and 2015 to an extent. If we go without another named system for the rest of the July, then we surely can say it's toned down.
