Humberto is moving toward the northeast near 22 mph (35 km/h). This general motion is expected to continue today, followed by a north- northeastward motion at a slower forward speed Thursday night and Friday.

Maximum sustained winds are near 125 mph (205 km/h) with higher gusts. Humberto is a category 3 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. The hurricane should start to weaken today, and it is expected to become a post-tropical cyclone by Friday. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 90 miles (150 km) from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 405 miles (650 km). The estimated minimum central pressure is 952 mb (28.12 inches).

These swells could cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office and the Bermuda Weather Service. STORM SURGE: Storm surge along the coast of Bermuda should subside today. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next intermediate advisory at 800 AM AST.
