near latitude 25.4 North, longitude 65.8 West. Earl is moving toward
the north near 6 mph (9 km/h), and a continued northward motion is

pass to the southeast of Bermuda late Thursday and Thursday night.

Data from a NOAA Hurricane Hunter aircraft indicate that maximum
sustained winds have increased to 85 mph (135 km/h) with higher
gusts. Strengthening is forecast during the next couple of days,
and Earl is expected to become a major hurricane late Thursday or
Thursday night.

Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 40 miles (65 km) from
the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 125
miles (205 km).
