(Reuters) – A potential tropical cyclone formed over the west-central Caribbean Sea and will strengthen during the next few days to become a tropical storm on Friday, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said on Thursday.
The system, dubbed Potential Tropical Cyclone Twenty-Two, was located about 115 miles (185 km) east of Cabo Gracias a Dios on the Nicaragua-Honduras border and was packing maximum sustained winds of 35 miles per hour (55 km per hour), the center added.
