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

Special Tropical Weather Outlook issued to update the discussion of
the low-pressure system southwest of the Baja California peninsula.

1. Recent satellite-derived surface wind data indicate that the
well-defined low pressure system located about 1100 miles
southwest of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula is
developing into a tropical depression. As a result, advisories will
be issued on Tropical Depression Fifteen-E at 200 am PDT this Sunday
morning.
* Formation chance through 48 hours…high…near 100 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days…high…near 100 percent.

2. A broad low pressure system located about 500 miles south-southwest
of Acapulco, Mexico, is producing a large area of cloudiness and
disorganized showers and thunderstorms. Environmental conditions are
expected to be conducive for gradual development of this disturbance
over the next several days, and a tropical depression is likely to
form by the middle of next week while the system moves westward to
west-northwestward at 10 mph.
* Formation chance through 48 hours…medium…40 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days…high…80 percent.
