MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Tropical Storm Celia formed on Saturday in the Pacific off southern Mexico and could 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 335 miles south of the tourist resort of Acapulco, the Miami-based hurricane center said.
"Celia could become a hurricane on Sunday," the center said, warning the storm may cause dangerous surf conditions along the Mexican coast.
