Tropical Storm Paul is heading away from the west coast of Mexico today, but forecasters warn it could come back as a hurricane within two days.

Early today, Paul was about 460 miles south of the Baja California Peninsula.

It had maximum sustained winds of 50 miles-an-hour.

The storm is expected to skirt the tip of the peninsula and hit mainland Mexico early this week as a hurricane.

Mexico was hit by two Pacific hurricanes last month.

One killed five people.
