MIAMI (AP) -- Forecasters say Hurricane Rick has weakened to Category 1 storm as it approaches the resorts of Baja California.

A hurricane watch is out for Santa Fe southward on the west coast and from San Evaristo, Mexico, southward on the east coast, including Cabo San Lucas. The U.S. National Weather Service said more watches and warnings may be needed later Monday or Tuesday.

Forecasters say winds have died down to 85 mph. At their peak, winds were at 180 mph as a Category 5 storm last week.

As of 8 p.m. EDT Monday, the eye was located about 305 miles south-southwest of Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.

The center is expected to be near Baja California by late Tuesday or early Wednesday and approaching the western coast of mainland Mexico by late Wednesday.
