1100 PM PDT Wed Jul 18 2018

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

1. A tropical wave is producing a large area of showers and
thunderstorms centered about 1250 miles southwest of the southern
tip of the Baja California peninsula. This system continues to
show some signs of organization, and further development is possible
during the next several days while it moves quickly westward.
* Formation chance through 48 hours…low…30 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days…medium…40 percent.

2. An area of low pressure is expected to form this weekend several
hundred miles southwest of Mexico. Environmental conditions
should support some slow development of this system early next week
while it moves westward or west-northwestward well southwest of
Mexico.
* Formation chance through 48 hours…low…near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days…medium…40 percent.

3. Another area of low pressure is likely to form early next week
several hundred miles south of the southern coast of Mexico.
Conditions appear conducive for some development of this system next
week while it moves westward to west-northwestward at around
10 mph.
* Formation chance through 48 hours…low…near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days…low…20 percent.

Description:
The Global Infrared Satellite image shows clouds by their temperature. Red and blue areas indicate cold (high) cloud tops. Infrared (IR) radiation is electromagnetic radiation whose wavelength is longer than that of visible light, but shorter than that of terahertz radiation and microwaves. Weather satellites equipped with scanning radiometers produce thermal or infrared images which can then enable a trained analyst to determine cloud heights and types, to calculate land and surface water temperatures, and to locate ocean surface features.
