Rina weakens to Cat 1 hurricane off Yucatan (AP)

MIAMI ? Hurricane Rina is weakening and has dropped to a Category 1 storm in the Caribbean off the Yucatan coast.

The U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami said Wednesday that Rina's maximum sustained winds are down to 85 mph (140 kph).

The forecast track shows it near or over the northeast coast of Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula on Thursday before curving toward western Cuba.

Additional weakening is forecast in the next 48 hours. But it will be at hurricane strength when it nears the Yucatan shore.

The hurricane is centered about 180 miles (290 kilometers) south-southeast of Cozumel.
