HURRICANE WATCH: Hilda has weakened a little overnight but remains a powerful Category 3 hurricane with sustained winds of 125 mph and is located about 720 miles to the east-southeast of Hilo, Hawaii. Warm waters ahead of the storm will support this storm maintaining its current strength through the next 24 hours.

Elsewhere across the eastern Pacific, there is a large cluster of showers and thunderstorms centered about 1,000 miles west-southwest of the southern tip of Baja California. This area of unsettled weather may gradually develop some tropical characteristics over the next few days.
