With the season so close, are these the kind of systems that we should be looking at, or is nothing likely to come from them?

E. Pacific flare-ups
There is some impressive convection firing up in the E. Pacific this afternoon. The one furthest east looks particularly strong.

The transverse banded cirrus between 15 and 20N shows that there are some moderate to strong westerlies and associated shear there so development, if any, would be minimal at this point in time. Need to get the trough to the north over the western US out of the way and develop the STR before we can get going. Models do indicate this happening next week but right it would be wait and see as the models have tended to overdevelop the STR in recent months.
