Statement as of 11:00 am PDT on July 20, 2008
For the eastern North Pacific...east of 140 degrees west longitude..
The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Hurricane
Fausto...located about 380 miles south-southwest of Cabo San Lucas
Mexico.
Showers and thunderstorms associated with the area of low pressure
centered about 275 miles south of Puerto Angel Mexico have become
better organized this morning. Environmental conditions appear
conducive for development...and this system could become a tropical
depression at any time during the next day or so as it moves
westward at about 15 mph.
A weak low...the remnants of tropical cyclone Elida...is located
about 1150 miles east of the Hawaiian islands. Showers and
thunderstorms associated with the low have diminished and
redevelopment within the next two days is not likely.
Elsewhere...tropical cyclone formation is not expected during the
next 48 hours.
