MEXICO CITY — Powerful Hurricane Barbara is weakening over the open Pacific, with its maximum sustained winds dipping to 140 mph from a peak of 155 mph.
The U.S. National Hurricane Center said Wednesday that the storm is centered about 1,860 miles east of Hilo, Hawaii, and moving to the west-northwest at 12 mph.
The forecast track is carrying roughly in the direction of Hawaii, but the storm is forecast to weaken to a depression well before reaching that area.
