Second storm of the 2012 Eastern Pacific season forms

What's up with soon to be Tropical Storm Bud? Will California see any surf from it?

TD 2e Update Monday 5/21/2012

Tropical Depression 2e has formed today, and will soon be our second named system in this still very young 2012 Eastern Pacific tropical season which officially started on May 15th.TD 2e is centered roughly 540 miles south of Acapulco, Mexico and is on a slow west-northwest track. The latest tropical depression is in an environment conducive to strengthening (warm water and low wind shear) and is forecast to quickly intensify over the next 48-72 hours; becoming Tropical Storm Bud very soon and hurricane later on Tuesday.The soon to be Tropical Storm/Hurricane Bud is not forecast to make it into the Southern California swell window so, at this time, we are not expecting any surf from it. Its a different story for Mainland Mexico and southernmost Baja, so be sure to check those respective forecasts here This will be our one and only blog post on Bud, unless the forecast track changes and he makes it into the Southern California swell window.The forecast track and intensity of Bud over the next few days, taken from Surfline's HurricaneTrak . Notice that Bud never makes it into the SoCal swell window (indicated by the westernmost/left-most red line), thus we are not expecting any surf from it in California at this time.
