Tropical Storm Colin forms over the Gulf of Mexico, heads to Florida
BY BNO NEWS

MIAMI: -- A tropical cyclone that formed near the tip of Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula has strengthened into Tropical Storm Colin, forecasters say, prompting a tropical storm warning for parts of Florida where it is expected to make landfall.

A low pressure area that was located near the northeastern portion of Yucatan developed into a tropical depression on late Sunday morning and continued to strengthen as it entered the Gulf of Mexico, reaching tropical storm strength by 4:30 p.m. CT.

“Reports from an Air Force Reserve Unit Hurricane Hunter aircraft indicate that Tropical Depression Three is now a tropical storm with maximum sustained winds of 40 miles (65 kilometers) per hour,” said Richard Pasch, a senior hurricane specialist at the National Hurricane Center (NHC).
