Tropical Storm Fabio formed over the Eastern North Pacific Ocean southwest of Mexico on Monday morning.\u00a0 At 11:00 a.m. EDT on Monday the center of Tropical Storm Fabio was located at latitude 14.8\u00b0N and longitude 106.9\u00b0W which put the center about 335 miles (540 km) southwest of Manzanillo, Mexico.\u00a0 Fabio was moving toward the northwest at 12 m.p.h. (19 km\/h).\u00a0 The maximum sustained wind speed was 40 m.p.h. (65 km\/h) and there were wind gusts to 50 m.p.h. (80 km\/h).\u00a0 The minimum surface pressure was 1006 mb.<\/p>\n

A low pressure system over the Eastern North Pacific Ocean southwest of Mexico strengthened on Monday morning and the U.S. National Hurricane Center designated the system as Tropical Storm Fabio.\u00a0 More thunderstorms formed near the center of Fabio’s circulation.\u00a0 However, the distribution of thunderstorms around Tropical Storm Fabio was asymmetrical.\u00a0 Thunderstorms were occurring in bands in the southern and western parts of Fabio’s circulation.\u00a0 Bands in the northern and eastern parts of Tropical Storm Fabio consisted primarily of showers and lower clouds.\u00a0 Storms near the center of Fabio generated upper level divergence that pumped mass away to the west of the tropical storm.<\/p>\n

Winds to tropical storm force extended out 70 miles in the southeastern quadrant of Tropical Storm Fabio.\u00a0 The winds in the other parts of Fabio’s circulation were blowing at less than tropical storm force.<\/p>\n

Tropical Storm Fabio will move through an environment somewhat favorable for intensification during the next 24 hours.\u00a0 Fabio will move over water where the Sea Surface Temperatures are near 28\u00b0C.\u00a0\u00a0 It will move under the southern part of an upper level ridge over the Eastern North Pacific Ocean.\u00a0 The ridge will produce easterly winds that will blow toward the top of Fabio’s circulation.\u00a0 Those winds will cause some vertical wind shear, but the shear may not be enough to prevent intensification. The circulation around Fabio could interact with the circulation around Tropical Storm Emilia.\u00a0 Tropical Storm Fabio could intensify during the next 24 hours.<\/p>\n

Tropical Storm Fabio is currently being steered by the circulation around Tropical Storm Emilia.\u00a0 Fabio is forecast to be steered toward the northwest during the next 24 hours.\u00a0 On its anticipated track, Tropical Storm Fabio will move farther away from Mexico.\u00a0 There is a chance that the circulations around Fabio and Tropical Storm Emilia could merge into a single circulation.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, Tropical Storms Carlotta, Daniel and Emilia were spinning over the Eastern North Pacific Ocean.<\/p>\n

At 11:00 a.m. EDT on Monday the center of Tropical Storm Carlotta was located at latitude 20.4\u00b0N and longitude 127.2\u00b0W which put the center about 1125 miles (1805 km) west of the southern tip of Baja California.\u00a0 Carlotta was moving toward the west at 9 m.p.h. (15 km\/h).\u00a0 The maximum sustained wind speed was 45 m.p.h. (75 km\/h) and there were wind gusts to 60 m.p.h. (95 km\/h).\u00a0 The minimum surface pressure was 1001 mb.<\/p>\n

At 11:00 a.m. EDT on Monday the center of Tropical Storm Daniel was located at latitude 15.6\u00b0N and longitude 127.7\u00b0W which put the center about 1265 miles (2035 km) west-southwest of the southern tip of Baja California.\u00a0 Daniel was moving toward the northeast at 14 m.p.h. (22 km\/h).\u00a0 The maximum sustained wind speed was 40 m.p.h. (65 km\/h) and there were wind gusts to 50 m.p.h. (80 km\/h).\u00a0 The minimum surface pressure was 1005 mb.<\/p>\n

At 11:00 a.m. EDT on Monday the center of Tropical Storm Emilia was located at latitude 14.5\u00b0N and longitude 114.1\u00b0W which put the center about 640 miles (1035 km) west-southwest of the southern tip of Baja California.\u00a0 Emilia was moving toward the south-southwest at 5 m.p.h. (8 km\/h).\u00a0 The maximum sustained wind speed was 45 m.p.h. (75 km\/h) and there were wind gusts to 60 m.p.h. (120 km\/h).\u00a0 The minimum surface pressure was 1001 mb.<\/p>\n
