DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 500 PM AST (2100 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Philippe was located near latitude 27.0 North, longitude 66.2 West. Philippe is moving toward the north near 14 mph (22 km/h), and this general motion with an increase in forward speed is expected to continue through Saturday nigh. A turn toward the north-northwest is forecast early Sunday. On the forecast track, the center of Philippe will pass near or just west of Bermuda on Friday, and then reach the coast of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, or eastern Maine Saturday night. Maximum sustained winds are near 50 mph (85 km/h) with higher gusts. Little change in strength is forecast during the next day or so. Some strengthening is possible Friday night or Saturday, but Philippe is expected to become post-tropical on Saturday. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 230 miles (370 km) to the east of the center. The estimated minimum central pressure is 1005 mb (29.68 inches).

RAINFALL: Rainfall totals of 2 to 4 inches are expected across Bermuda through Friday. This rainfall could result in flash flooding. For portions of New York and New England, rainfall amounts of 1 to 3 inches, with local amounts of 5 inches, are expected with Philippe as it moves through the region Saturday and Saturday night.
