  "account": "Typhoon Nolo, formerly a hurricane, has crossed the international dateline in the Pacific Ocean and is now a typhoon. Despite losing its hurricane status, the storm retains its powerful winds, with maximum sustained winds reaching 115 mph (185 kph). Nolo is situated approximately 395 miles (640 kilometers) west-southwest of Lisianski Island and is moving west at a speed of 17 mph (28 kph), as reported by the U.S. National Hurricane Center.\n\nAccording to John Cangialosi, a senior hurricane specialist at the center, the vast expanse of the ocean provides some relief, even though Nolo remains a formidable force. Tropical cyclones with winds surpassing 74 mph (119 kph) are designated different names depending on their formation location. They are called hurricanes in the North Atlantic Ocean and the central and eastern Pacific regions, typhoons in the Northwest Pacific, and tropical cyclones in the South Pacific and Indian Ocean, regardless of their intensity.\n\nNolo is forecast to continue its westward trajectory across the Pacific and is not expected to pose any threat to landmasses through Friday. The storm recently passed by Hawaii as a hurricane a week ago, subsequently weakening into a tropical storm before regaining hurricane strength on Friday. Meanwhile, in another part of the Pacific, Hurricane Rachel is also heading westward, away from Mexico. As Rachel moves further out to sea, it is generating hazardous waves and swells, threatening the coasts of west-central Mexico and the Baja California Peninsula, according to the hurricane center.",
