Forecasters are still confident the storm will weaken considerably by the time it gets close to the islands early next week and enters cooler Pacific Ocean waters, but may still remain a powerful tropical storm carrying potential for heavy rain and large, dangerous surf.
Two additional earthquakes measuring 5.1 and 5.0 on the Richter scale were recorded in the Pacific Ocean near the Kuril Islands on Wednesday evening, according to the Sakhalin branch of the Unified Geophysical Service of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
