July 11 (UPI) -- The National Hurricane Center on Tuesday said Hurricane Eugene has weakened to a tropical storm.
"Showers and thunderstorms have become a little better organized since yesterday near a broad area of low pressure located several hundred miles south-southwest of Manzanillo, Mexico," the NHC said in statement issued at 2 a.m. EST. "Environmental conditions could become more conducive for gradual development of this system over the next several days while it moves westward or west-northwestward at about 10 mph."
