Although forecasters have initially said that Tropical Storm Kiko was expected to gather hurricane strength, things turned for the better as the storm got demoted to Post-Tropical Cyclone Kiko, National Hurricane Center stated Monday.
The U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami has issued a statement on Sept. 2 that Tropical Stork Kiko had finally weakened; demoting its tropical storm status into post-tropical cyclone.
In a former statement, the Center stated that Tropical Storm Kiko had sustained a maximum of 70 mph (110 kmh) winds and was said to be moving north at 7 mph (11 kmh).
Reports noted that though the storm had a strong potential to become a hurricane, no immediate threat was seen, adding that forecasters were carefullly on the look-out for its transformation in the Pacific.
Tropical Storm Kiko formed about 400 miles from Baja coast, and was reported to have centered about 380 miles (615 kilometers) west-southwest of Mexico's Baja California peninsula's southern tip.
Apparently, the Center initially issued advisories, but now that the storm has weakened and its winds has decreased in strength, no warning or coastal watches in effect for land were issued, Huffington Post reported Sunday morning.
As of late, the National Hurricane Center has reduced its status into a depression, and even officially announced that expected to degenerate into a remnant low by Tuesday.
Recent updates stated that Tropical Storm Kiko's maximum sustained wind has dwindled into 50 mph (85 kmh) while its wind force extends up to 70 miles (110 km), and its minimum central pressure was said to be at 1000 MB (29.53 inches).
Slower forward speed is expected over the next couple of days, NOAA/National Weather Service stated on the latest update.
