MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Tropical Storm Celia formed on Saturday in the Pacific off southern Mexico and could soon become a hurricane as it moves away from the coast, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said.

Celia, the third named storm of the Pacific hurricane season, was 340 miles south of the tourist resort of Acapulco, the Miami-based hurricane center said.

"Celia could become a hurricane later tonight or Sunday," the center said, warning the storm will cause dangerous surf conditions along the Mexican coast.
