The western Caribbean’s weather pattern has quieted down quite a bit the past few days. It seems though, many times that as one location gets calmer, the other gets rougher. A few days ago we almost had our first named eastern Pacific storm. The strong upper air winds got to it just before it reached tropical storm strength.

This time around it looks like a new depression has formed southwest of Acapulco, and may have a much better shot at developing. We’ll keep you updated! Please pass along any questions of comments on my website message boards!
