A broad area of low pressure will likely form during the next couple
of days well southeast of the Hawaiian Islands. Environmental
conditions appear conducive for gradual development thereafter, and
a tropical depression could form this weekend or early next week
while the system moves westward.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...60 percent.

The Central Pacific wave has been downgraded to 50%. However, a new wave off the Mexican Coast now has an 80% chance in the next 5 days.
