Environmental conditions appear conducive for some gradual development of this system, and a tropical depression could form during the early or middle portions of next week while it moves generally west-northwestward at 10 to 15 mph well off the coast of Mexico. There is a low chance of development within the next 48 hours, and a medium chance within the next 7 days.
