05/07/05 11PM MDT - Dora has degenerated
into a tropical depression. The Mexican Government has discontinued all
storm warnings for the southwestern coast of Mexico. Tropical Storm Dora is currently located near

Central barometric pressure is estimated at 1009Mb, winds are estimated at
30kts.
Tropical Depression 4E formed on 03/07 south of
Acapulco, Mexico. Dora became the fourth named storm of the 2005 Eastern
Pacific Hurricane Season on 04/07, at 2:30PM. But Dora was doomed from the
start, forming in waters of less than 28°C and moved quickly (as fast as
11kts) west into cooler waters. Convection within the storm continued to
decrease on 05/07 and at 2:45PM Dora was downgraded to a tropical
depression.
The five day forecast puts the storm well south
of Baja California, passing directly over the Socorro Islands and out into
the Pacific Ocean. The storm may provide increased humidity, and possibly,
some associated rain near the end of the week.
