Nicole is moving toward the east-northeast near 20 mph (31 km/h), and this motion is expected to continue for the next couple of days with a gradual decrease in forward speed.

However, Nicole could become a post-tropical cyclone tonight or on Saturday. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 70 miles (110 km) from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 240 miles (390 km). The estimated minimum central pressure is 971 mb (28.68 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- SURF: Swells associated with Nicole will continue to affect Bermuda and the United States east coast from the Carolinas northward for the next couple of days. Swells from Nicole will begin to affect the coastline of Atlantic Canada tonight and continue into the weekend. These swells will create dangerous surf conditions and rip currents.
