MIAMI (BNO NEWS) -- A tropical depression formed off the Pacific coast of Mexico on early Sunday morning, prompting a hurricane watch for some local coastlines, forecasters said.

Tropical Depression Two-E formed about 200 miles (320 kilometers) south-southwest of Punta Maldonado, a beach town in the Mexican state of Guerrero. It is expected to become a tropical storm later on Sunday, and a hurricane by Tuesday morning.

As a result, forecasters have issued a hurricane watch for the coast of Mexico from Zihuatanejo westward to Manzanillo. A tropical storm warning is in effect from Tecpan de Galeana westward to Punta San Telmo.
