Off the coast of Southwestern Mexico (EP97): Showers and thunderstorms continue to show signs of organization in association with a broad area of low pressure located a couple of hundred miles south of Manzanillo, Mexico. Satellite data suggest the circulation of the system is becoming better defined, and a tropical depression is likely to form later tonight or on Saturday as it moves generally northwestward at about 15 mph, parallel to but not far offshore of the southwestern coast of Mexico. Interests along the southwestern coast of Mexico and the southern portion of the Baja California peninsula should monitor the progress of this system during the next few days. * Formation chance through 48 hours...high...90 percent. * Formation chance through 7 days...high...90 percent.
