Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1100 AM PDT Thu Jul 31 2025

For the eastern and central North Pacific east of 180 longitude:

Active Systems:
The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical
Storm Iona, located in the central Pacific basin well southwest of
the Hawaiian Islands and Tropical Storm Gil, located well
south-southwest of the southern Baja California peninsula.

Well Southeast of the Hawaiian Islands (CP92):
Disorganized showers and thunderstorms associated with a broad area
of low pressure located about 650 miles southeast of Hilo, Hawaii,
continue to persist. While the system currently lacks a
well-defined low-level center, some development is possible during
the next 24 hours. By this weekend, environmental conditions are
expected to become less conducive for further development.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...30 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...30 percent.

Central East Pacific:
An area of low pressure is expected to form well south of
southwestern Mexico in the next couple of days. Environmental
conditions appear conducive for some gradual development of this
system, and a tropical depression is likely to form over the
weekend or early next week as the system moves west-northwestward at
10 to 15 mph.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...high...70 percent.

Tropical Storm Gil Discussion Number   3
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       EP072025
1100 AM HST Thu Jul 31 2025
 
Gil has been holding steady since the last advisory.  A 
scatterometer pass from 1729 UTC showed the low-level center near 
the northern edge of the Central Dense Overcast (CDO) suggesting the 
cyclone is experiencing moderate vertical wind shear.  The initial 
intensity is held at 45 kt for this cycle, in agreement with the 
TAFB and SAB Dvorak estimates.  While the scatterometer pass only 
covered the western half of the storm, it did provide information 
used to update some of the tropical-storm-force radii.

The motion is west-northwestward at 11 kt along the southern 
periphery of a mid-level ridge centered over the Baja California 
peninsula.  This general motion, with a gradual increase in forward 
speed, should continue through the weekend.  By early next week, 
Gil should turn more westward in the trade winds.  Only slight 
adjustments have been made to the latest official track forecast.

Global models predict that the vertical wind shear should 
gradually abate over the next 12 hours or so.  After this occurs, 
the warm sea surface temperatures and ample mid-level moisture 
should allow Gil to continue to strengthen for the next day or so.  
By Saturday, the storm is expected to cross the 26 degree isotherm 
and move over progressively cooler waters.  This should induce a 
steady-to-rapid weakening trend through the end of the forecast 
period.  Gil is still predicted to lose its organized deep 
convection and become a remnant low by day 4.  The intensity 
guidance predictions have decreased somewhat this cycle and the 
official forecast now lies near the upper end of the guidance 
envelope.
