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

Active Systems:
The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Hurricane 
Dora, located nearly 1500 miles west-southwest of the southern 
tip of the Baja California Peninsula.

1. Off the coast of Southwestern Mexico (EP97):
Recent satellite data indicate that the circulation associated with 
an area of low pressure located a couple of hundred miles south of 
Manzanillo, Mexico, continues to become better defined.  Although 
the associated shower and thunderstorm activity decreased in 
coverage during the evening, environmental conditions are conducive 
for additional development, and a tropical depression is likely to 
form overnight or on Saturday.  The disturbance is forecast to move 
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 this weekend.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...90 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...high...90 percent.
