Another low pressure area located about 1450 miles east-southeast of the Hawaiian Islands is producing disorganized showers and thunderstorms. Strong upper-level winds and proximity to dry air are expected to inhibit significant development of this system while it moves westward at 10 to 15 mph during the next days or two. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...low...10 percent.
