Potential For Three Hurricanes to Form Near One Another

There are three areas of disturbed weather off the western coast of Mexico that all could form into hurricanes over the next few days.

The first is located about 100 miles south of Acapulco, Mexico and is producing a large area of showers and thunderstorms.

Environmental conditions could still favor some gradual development during the next couple of days while the system moves west-northwestward just off the southwestern coast of Mexico.

Secondly, a broad area of low pressure has developed a few hundred miles south-southwest of Manzanillo, Mexico and is producing disorganized showers and thunderstorms. Some slow development of this system is possible over the next few days.

The third area is a tropical wave located a little less than 1000 miles south-southwest of the Baja California peninsula is producing an area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms.

Environmental conditions are expected to become more conducive for tropical cyclone formation early next week while the system moves westward or west-northwestward.
