    DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
    ----------------------
    At 1100 PM AST (0300 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Jerry was
    located near latitude 12.8 North, longitude 48.7 West. Jerry is
    moving toward the west-northwest near 23 mph (37 km/h). This
    general motion is expected to continue with a decrease in forward
    speed during the next couple of days. On the forecast track, the
    core of the system is expected to be near or to the north of the
    northern Leeward Islands late Thursday and Friday.

    Recent satellite wind data indicate that maximum sustained winds
    are near 50 mph (85 km/h) with higher gusts. Strengthening is
    forecast during the next couple of days, and Jerry is expected to
    become a hurricane by Wednesday night or Thursday.

    Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 140 miles (220 km)
    from the center.

    The estimated minimum central pressure is 1003 mb (29.62 inches).
