Madeline has formed in the open Pacific and is expected to gradually intensify over the next several days.
Here's the latest from the National Hurricane Center:
  • Tropical Storm Madeline is located just over 1000 miles east-southeast of Hilo, Hawaii.
  • Madeline is forecast to strengthen over the next couple of days, and could become a hurricane by late Sunday.
  • The system is no threat to the U.S. mainland, but it is headed in the general direction of Hawaii by Wednesday night or Thursday and could be solid tropical storm at that time.
  • Hawaii residents and visitors should be aware of the latest updates and make necessary preparations if Madeline targets the islands.
