Tropical Storm Julio forms in the Pacific and isn't threatening land

Tropical Storm Julio formed on Tuesday in the Pacific Ocean about 815 miles southwest of Baja California, with maximum sustained winds of 45 mph and no threat to land.
Forecasters expect Julio to strengthen slightly before being absorbed by the stronger Tropical Storm Iselle, located to the north with 70 mph winds about 660 miles west of Baja California.
Elsewhere in the Central Pacific, Tropical Storm Lala continues churning with 50 mph winds and poses no threat to land. Earlier this month, Lala battered Hawaii as a hurricane, causing destructive flooding.
And Moke is no longer considered a tropical cyclone after skirting Hawaii as a tropical storm, the Miami-based National Hurricane Center confirmed.
No coastal watches or warnings are in effect for either Tropical Storm Julio or Tropical Storm Iselle across the Pacific Ocean. Monitoring continues with no land impacts currently anticipated.
