form from this system over the next day or two, and a tropical
depression could form early next week while the disturbance moves
westward to west-northwestward at 5 to 10 mph away from the coast of
Mexico.

* Formation chance through 5 days…medium…50 percent.

2. A broad area of low pressure located about 800 miles south-southwest
of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula is producing
disorganized shower activity. Environmental conditions are expected
to be marginally conducive for development over the next few days
while the disturbance moves toward the north or north-northeast at
about 5 mph over the open eastern North Pacific.

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.
