A DEEP LAYERED CYCLONE IS AT 32N142W WITH AN UPPER TROUGH S TO
15N150W. A SURFACE FRONT IS ALONG 32N137W 24N140W ACCOMPANIED BY
SCATTERED SHOWERS WITHIN 120 NM E OF THE FRONT. AN UPPER ANTICYCLONE
IS NEAR 12N135W WITH AN UPPER RIDGE AMPLIFYING N BEYOND 32N125W.
THE RIDGE SEPARATES THE UPPER TROUGH TO THE W FROM ANOTHER UPPER
CYCLONE AT 27N114W WITH AN ILL-DEFINED TROUGH EXTENDING S TO A BASE
ESTIMATED NEAR 11N110W. A BAND OF UPPER MOISTURE IS OBSERVED WITHIN
180 NM EITHER SIDE OF LINE 32N136W 22N131W 11N140W. OTHERWISE
MODERATE TO STRONG UPPER DRY AIR AND SUBSIDENCE IS NOTED N OF THE
ITCZ W OF 108W...AND IS SUPPRESSING CONVECTION ALONG THE ITCZ W OF
120W.
But then I saw the coordinates for it and found out it was way north. Still looks pretty good for an extratropical low.

I beleive these types of lows are common in Pacific but I just found it weird why the NHC acknowledged it when they usually don't.
This almost scared me.
