Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
400 AM PST Wed Nov 28 2018

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

1. A westward-moving low pressure system located about 400 miles
south-southwest of Manzanillo, Mexico, continues to produce
disorganized showers and thunderstorms. Upper-level winds have
become less conducive for development, and tropical cyclone
formation is becoming less likely. However, shower activity
associated with the disturbance is still forecast to move
northeastward toward southwestern Mexico today through Thursday,
bringing locally heavy rainfall to portions of the Mexican states
of Guerrero, Michoacan, Colima and Jalisco. These rains could result
in life-threatening flash floods and mudslides.
* Formation chance through 48 hours…low…30 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days…low…30 percent.

Description:
The Global Infrared Satellite image shows clouds by their temperature. Red and blue areas indicate cold (high) cloud tops. Infrared (IR) radiation is electromagnetic radiation whose wavelength is longer than that of visible light, but shorter than that of terahertz radiation and microwaves. Weather satellites equipped with scanning radiometers produce thermal or infrared images which can then enable a trained analyst to determine cloud heights and types, to calculate land and surface water temperatures, and to locate ocean surface features.
