400 AM PST Tue Nov 27 2018
For the eastern North Pacific…east of 140 degrees west longitude:
1. A low pressure system located more than 400 hundred miles southwest
of Acapulco, Mexico, continues to produce disorganized shower and
thunderstorm activity. However, environmental conditions are
forecast to become a little more conducive for some gradual
development, and a tropical depression could form during the next
couple of days. The disturbance is forecast to move northward
today, and then turn northeastward toward southwestern Mexico on
Wednesday.
* Formation chance through 48 hours…medium…40 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days…medium…50 percent.
2. A broad area of low pressure located about 1200 miles
south-southwest of the southern tip of the Baja California
peninsula is producing limited shower activity. Strong upper-level
winds are expected to prevent significant development of this system
during the next couple of days while it remains nearly stationary.
* Formation chance through 48 hours…low…near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days…low…near 0 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.
