This is pretty odd. I was looking at the GFS RH (relative humidity,
700mB) charts just now to determine the path of Harvey and happened to notice
that a very moist low-pressure system is forecast to appear off the tip of Baja
and then move NNW along the Pacific coast, arriving due west of Punta Eugenia a
week from this Sunday.
NHC does not show this in their forecast, and nothing appears on the
current surface analysis charts to suggest such a system, except for a tropical
wave that is currently west of Nicaragua, but there is no low associated with
this feature.
I'll be keeping a watch on this.
