Islands should monitor the progress of this system.

An area of low pressure could form in a few days to the south of the 
Gulf of Tehuantepec. Thereafter, environmental conditions appear 
favorable for gradual development, and a tropical depression could 
form late this week or this weekend while the system moves slowly 
west-northwestward to northwestward, parallel to the coast of 
southern and southwestern Mexico.
