DISCUSSION AND 48-HOUR OUTLOOK ------------------------------ At 400 AM EST (0900 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Kate was located near latitude 28.8 North, longitude 75.8 West. Kate is moving toward the north near 17 mph (28 km/h). A turn toward the northeast at a faster forward speed is forecast later today, followed by an even faster east-northeastward motion on Wednesday. On the forecast track, the center of Kate is expected to remain well offshore the east coast of the United States and north of Bermuda. Maximum sustained winds are near 60 mph (95 km/h) with higher gusts. Some strengthening is forecast during the next couple of days, and Kate could become a hurricane by Wednesday. Tropical storm force winds extend outward up to 80 miles (130 km) from the center. Data from a NOAA Hurricane Hunter aircraft indicate that the minimum central pressure is 1003 mb (29.62 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- SURF: Swells generated by Kate are affecting the eastward-facing beaches in the northwestern Bahamas but should gradually subside today. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next complete advisory at 1000 AM EST. $$ Forecaster Berg |
