Iona has formed well south of Hawaii on Sunday morning, its upgrade to hurricane Monday morning made it the first July hurricane in the Central Pacific Basin since Darby in 2022. Two more disturbances are on the heels of Iona, Tropical Depression Two-C and Invest 98E. Tropical Depression Two-C is forecasted to become Tropical Storm Keli by Tuesday. After Tuesday, Two-C or Keli will eventually quickly weaken as it encounters colder waters.
