[1995 East Pacific Hurricane Season]

Convection, associated with a disturbance along the ITCZ, became consolidated a short distance to the south of the Gulf of Tehuantepec on 19 May. Continuity suggests that this disturbance was related to a westward-moving tropical wave that entered the eastern north Pacific in mid-May. For a couple of days, the disturbance moved westward without significant development. Organization of the cloud pattern increased early on the 21st, and it is estimated that Tropical Depression One-E formed at 0600 UTC 21 May, about 350 n mi south of Manzanillo, Mexico. The cyclone moved westward over the waters of the Pacific with little change in intensity for the next day or two, until late on the 22nd when convection decreased and the organization began to deteriorate. The depression dissipated around 0600 UTC 23 May.
