for the eastern north pacific...east of 140 degrees west longitude..

Shower and thunderstorm activity has become better organized in
association with a broad area of low pressure located about 150
miles south of acapulco mexico. Conditions appear favorable for
additional development...and a tropical depression could form
during the next couple of days as this system moves slowly
westward. There is a medium chance...30 to 50 percent...of this
system becoming a tropical cyclone during the next 48 hours. Heavy
rains associated with this system could affect portions of the
southern coast of mexico during the next day or two.

1. Shower and thunderstorm activity continues to become better organized in association with a broad area of low pressure located about 160 miles south-southeast of acapulco mexico. Conditions appear favorable for further development...and a tropical depression could form in the next day or so as this system moves
slowly west-northwestward. There is a high chance...greater than 50 percent...of this system becoming a tropical cyclone during the next 48 hours. Regardless of development...heavy rains associated with this system could affect portions of the southern coast of mexico during the next day or two...and interests in this region should monitor the progress of this system.

hmmm...
Lots of convection there ... close to land

Looking at the model above, both ghe HWRF and the GFDL hae it making a brush with land, but continuing on over water. And Ships brings it to hurricane strength by Tuesday evening.

Might this be Andres in the making?

We will see what today brings.

Could be the first named storm.
