Hurricane Ernesto
Ernesto picked up strength as a hurricane early Monday as it headed farther out in the Atlantic toward easternmost Canada, but the storm is expected to stay offshore, causing powerful swells, dangerous surf and rip currents along the U.S. East Coast, the National Hurricane Center said.
The storm should move into the open Atlantic on Tuesday, the center said. Some coastal flooding in Canada was possible.
In the eastern Pacific Ocean, Tropical Storm Gilma strengthened but was forecast to remain away from land this week.
