Hurricane update - 17 July

Tropical storm Cosme, downgraded from hurricane status overnight, is moving west across the Eastern Pacific and will cross the 140th degree longitude tonight to cross into the Central Pacific Area of Responsibility. Cosme will weaken, and is likely to be a marginal tropical storm when it passes the Big Island in Hawaii over the weekend. A tropical weathersystem however does usually bring torrential rainfalls. An early warning therefore. Developments could yet wipe the storm off the weathermap altogether before it reaches HI.
