Tropical Storm Jova forms in the Pacific

MIAMI (AP) ? Forecasters say Tropical Storm Jova has formed in the Pacific off the coast of Mexico.

The National Hurricane Center said Thursday afternoon that Jova was centered about 495 miles (800 kilometers) south-southwest of Manzanillo, Mexico. Forecasters say Jova could become a hurricane by Saturday.

The storm's exact path remains uncertain, but models show Jova could make landfall over the mainland of Mexico sometime next week. Jova's maximum sustained winds were near 40 mph (65 kph).

Meanwhile, Tropical Storm Irwin also was swirling in the Pacific. It was expected to become a hurricane within a couple of days, but it's not yet clear if Irwin will affect land.

In the Atlantic, Hurricane Philippe was far off the U.S. coast and was not expected to threaten land.
