By early next week, close proximity to another low pressure system could limit the potential for further development of this disturbance. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...low...30 percent. An area of low pressure is forecast to form several hundred miles south or southwest of the southern coast of Mexico late this week. Environmental conditions are expected to be conducive for gradual development of this system over the weekend, and a tropical depression could form early next week while it moves west-northwestward off the coast of Mexico. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...medium...60 percent. $$ Forecaster Zelinsky
