    Tropical Depression Four-E Discussion Number   1
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       EP042026
    200 AM PDT Wed Jul 01 2026
     
    The area of low pressure (95E) over the western East Pacific has 
    continued to become better organized over the last 12 hours. 
    Persistent deep convection has developed primarily over the eastern 
    and southern portions of the circulation, with curved banding 
    features becoming well defined. Recent scatterometer data 
    indicate that the system has developed a closed, although somewhat 
    elongated, low-level circulation with maximum winds around 30 kt.  
    Subjective Dvorak current intensity estimates have increased to T1.5 
    from TAFB. Based on these developments, the system has been 
    designated as Tropical Depression Four-E, with an initial intensity 
    of 30 kt. 
    
    The depression is moving north-northwestward (345/6 kt), and this 
    general motion is forecast to continue over the next couple of days 
    along the western periphery of a ridge over the central portion of 
    the eastern Pacific basin. Models are in fairly good agreement with 
    this general motion, and the official NHC forecast lies near the 
    simple and corrected-consensus aids. Towards the end of the period, 
    as the system weakens and turns westward into the low-level flow, 
    there is slight timing differences of when that occurs based on the 
    convective structure. The NHC forecast continues to lie near or 
    just to the left of the consensus aids towards the end of the 
    period.
    
    The system has about a day or so to strengthen within a favorable 
    low-shear, moist environment, supported by upper-level divergence. 
    The official forecast has the system strengthening into a tropical 
    storm later today, which is good agreement with the latest intensity 
    aids. However, as the system moves north-northwestward, it will 
    encounter cooler SSTs along its track. In about 36–48 hours, wind 
    shear is forecast to increase, and the system will move into a drier 
    mid-level airmass. Given the combination of cooler SSTs and the 
    increasingly unfavorable environment, the system is forecast to 
    weaken and will eventually struggle to sustain deep convection. 
    Simulated IR imagery from the GFS and ECMWF suggests the system 
    could become devoid of deep convection by around 60 hours. Thus, the 
    NHC forecast calls for the system to weaken into a post-tropical 
    remnant low at that time, and dissipating into an open trough  by 
    the end of the forecast period.
