Tropical Storm Julio emerged in the Pacific Ocean on Tuesday and posed no threat to land, according to forecasters. The storm was situated approximately 815 miles southwest of the southern tip of Mexico's Baja California peninsula, with maximum sustained winds of 45 mph. The National Hurricane Center in Miami indicated that Julio was expected to intensify slightly before merging with stronger Tropical Storm Iselle, which was located to the north.
Iselle had winds of 70 mph and was about 660 miles west of the Baja California peninsula. No coastal watches or warnings were issued for either storm. Meanwhile, in the Central Pacific, Tropical Storm Lala maintained winds of 50 mph but remained non-threatening to land. Earlier this month, the outer bands of Lala impacted Hawaii as a hurricane, causing significant flooding.
Tropical Storm Moke, on the other hand, ceased to be a tropical cyclone after passing close to Hawaii as a tropical storm.
