For the eastern North Pacific…east of 140 degrees west longitude:
1. Disorganized showers and thunderstorms continue in association with
a well-defined low pressure system centered a little more than 100
miles southwest of Zihuatanejo, Mexico. Although tropical cyclone
formation is not expected due to strong upper-level winds, the
associated shower activity will continue to spread onshore and well
inland over southwestern Mexico into this afternoon. Locally heavy
rainfall and gusty winds will occur over portions of the Mexican
states of Guerrero, Michoacan, Colima and Jalisco, and these rains
could result in life-threatening flash floods and mudslides.
* Formation chance through 48 hours…low…near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days…low…near 0 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.
