Tropical Storm Malia crossed parts of the Papahanaumokuakea National Monument in the northwest Hawaiian islands Monday, while a new potential tropical cyclone developed southeast of the state.

Malia — upgraded from a tropical depression early Monday morning — was packing maximum sustained winds near 40 mph. 

At 5 a.m. Tuesday, the tropical storm was about 185 miles north of Lisianski Island and 295 miles northwest of Maro Reef moving northwest at 14 mph, according to the Central Pacific Hurricane Center in Honolulu.

Tropical storm-force winds extended out from Malia up to 205 miles. Malia is not expected to threaten the main Hawaiian islands.

Forecasters say the storm is expected to continue on a northwest track through the week.

An earlier tropical storm warning for portions of the Papahanaumokuakea Marine National Monument from French Frigate Shoals to Maro Reef to Lisianski Island has been canceled. 

The hurricane center is also monitoring another developing weather system about 930 miles southeast of Hilo.

"Environmental conditions are conducive for further development over the next couple of days as the low moves slowly toward the northwest," forecasters said, adding that the system has a 70 percent chance of becoming a tropical cyclone within the next two days.
