Pacific - Julio forms September 5, 2020 (storm, sun, moving, clouds)

[Psychoma]

Saturday 5Sept Tropical Storm Julio forms just along the S/SW Mexico coast.

This was the mid-level center (MLC) of Nana. Since it was not the Low Level Center (LLC) of Nana (very hard to survive crossing the higher mountains), the system gets a new name. (If you look at storm from the side from ocean surface up to the top of the clouds and cut it like a double layer cake you would have the bottom portion the LLC and the upper portion the MLC...different sections but still a spin of storm). Had the LLC formed Julio then it would have retained the Nana name.
