The National Hurricane Center says Tropical Storm Marie has strengthened slightly as it churns out in the Pacific.

Marie is centered about 855 miles west-southwest of the southern tip of Baja California, Mexico. The storm is moving west near 6 mph on a path that’s taking it farther away from Mexico’s coast.
