TD #10 now Tropical Storm Hermine and heading toward land...


Tropical Depression #10 is now Tropical Storm Hermine, packing maximum sustained winds of 50 mph. A Tropical Storm Warning is in effect from from La Cruz, Mexico to Port O'Connor, TX and a Hurricane Watch is posted from Rio San Fernando, Mexico north to Baffin Bay, TX. The center of Hermine is moving north-northwest at about 13 mph and is expected to approach the coast of northeastern Mexico or extreme southern Texas later tonight. Additional strengthening is forecast, and it's possible Hermine could reach hurricane strength before landfall. As of midday, tropical storm force winds extend outward 105 miles from the center.
