Tropical Storm Kiko reformed before dawn Wednesday off Mexico's Pacific coast, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said.

The storm was stalled far out to sea and was expected to strengthen slightly and move north in the coming days, forecasters said. It had sustained winds of 40 mph and wasn't expected to threaten land or become a hurricane.

The storm had been downgraded to a tropical depression late Tuesday before regaining tropical storm status Wednesday.
