    DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
    ----------------------
    At 500 AM AST (0900 UTC), the center of Hurricane Imelda was located
    near latitude 32.8 North, longitude 61.9 West. Imelda is moving
    toward the east-northeast near 30 mph (48 km/h), and this general
    motion is expected to continue through tonight. A northeastward
    motion is then forecast on Friday and Saturday. On the forecast
    track, the core of Imelda will move farther away from Bermuda
    during the next several hours.

    Maximum sustained winds are near 85 mph (140 km/h) with higher
    gusts. Imelda is expected to become an extratropical low later
    today, with gradual weakening forecast for the next several days.

    Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 45 miles (75 km) from the
    center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 255 miles
    (405 km). The elevated station at the National Museum of Bermuda
    recently reported sustained winds of 56 mph (91 km/h) and a wind
    gust of 70 mph (113 km/h).

    The estimated minimum central pressure is 975 mb (28.80 inches).


    HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
    ----------------------
    Key messages for Hurricane Imelda can be found in the Tropical
    Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT4 and WMO header
    WTNT44 KNHC.

    WIND: Tropical storm conditions are expected on Bermuda for the
    next few hours.

    RAINFALL: Lingering showers across Bermuda could produce up to an
    inch (25 mm) of additional rainfall through today.

    STORM SURGE: Storm surge flooding on Bermuda should subside today.

    SURF: Swells generated by Imelda are affecting the Bahamas, Bermuda,
    and much of the U.S. East Coast. Swells from Imelda will spread
    toward the Greater Antilles and northern Leeward Islands on Friday
    and continue through the weekend. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult
    products from your local weather office.
