Oct 7 (Reuters) - Joaquin, previously a category 1
hurricane, has weakened into a tropical storm over the Atlantic,
the National Hurricane Center said in its latest advisory on
Wednesday.
The storm, located about 540 miles (870 km) southeast of
Cape Race, Newfoundland, with maximum sustained winds of 70
miles per hour (110 km/h), is expected to weaken further into a
post-tropical cyclone by Wednesday night, the Miami-based
weather forecaster said.
