Tropical cyclones - 17th July

ATLANTIC
The low pressure system off the Carolinas has so far not intensified into a formal tropical depression.


EASTERN PACIFIC
The NHC has issued its final advisory on tropical depression Carlotta.


A new tropical depression has formed in the Eastern Pacific, and is provisionally called FIVE-E. Once it acquires tropical storm status (with sustained winds over 39 kts) a name will be assigned. Its location at 2 am PDT is 12.4N 111W, approximately 500 miles south of Baja California. The system is still at an embryonic state, but may yet intensify significantly later on; its maximum windspeeds are expected to top 80 knots, gusting to 100 knots.
