    DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
    ----------------------
    At 500 AM AST (0900 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Jerry was
    located near latitude 19.2 North, longitude 62.5 West. Jerry is
    moving toward the northwest near 17 mph (28 km/h). A turn toward the
    north is expected tonight into Saturday, followed by a northward to north-northeastward motion through the rest of the weekend. On the
    forecast track, the center of Jerry will continue passing to the
    north of the Leeward Islands this morning, then move away from the
    islands later today.

    Maximum sustained winds are near 50 mph (85 km/h) with higher gusts.
    Little change in strength is expected today, but slow strengthening
    is possible over the weekend.

    Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 185 miles (295 km)
    mainly to the east of the center.

    The estimated minimum central pressure is 1007 mb (29.74 inches).


    HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
    ----------------------
    Key messages for Tropical Storm Jerry can be found in the Tropical
    Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT5 and WMO header
    WTNT45 KNHC.

    WIND: Tropical storm conditions, mainly in gusts, are expected in
    the warning area and are possible in the watch area this morning.

    RAINFALL: Through today, 4 to 6 inches of rain are expected across
    the island of Barbuda. Elsewhere across the Leeward and Virgin
    Islands, 2 to 4 inches of rain are expected. This rainfall brings a
    risk of flash flooding, especially in urban areas and in steep
    terrain. For portions of Puerto Rico, moisture associated with Jerry
    combined with local orographic effects may result in up to 2 to 4
    inches of rain, with isolated amounts of 6 inches possible.

    For a complete depiction of forecast rainfall and flash flooding
    associated with Jerry, please see the National Weather Service storm
    total rainfall graphic, available at
    hurricanes.gov/graphics_at5.shtml?rainqpf

    SURF: Swells generated by Jerry are affecting the Leeward Islands,
    Windward Islands, the Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico, and are
    likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions.
    These swells are expected to spread toward the rest of the Greater
    Antilles today and tonight. Please consult products from your local
    weather office for more information.

    A depiction of rip current risk for the United States, including
    Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, can be found at: hurricanes.gov/graphics_at5.shtml?ripCurrents
