MEXICO CITY - Tropical storm Hernan gained strength on Thursday as it churned far off Mexico's Pacific coast.
Hernan could reach hurricane strength over the next two days, the National Hurricane Center in Miami reported.
The storm's winds have increased to almost 100 km/h but it was moving west-northwest at about 22 km/h and heading farther out to sea.
Hernan was located about 1,150 kilometres south-southwest of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula.
Hernan is the eighth named storm of the Pacific hurricane season.
