Henri is moving toward the west near 8 mph (13 km/h). A gradual turn to the west-northwest and Northwest by late Thursday is expected, followed by a turn to the northwest on Friday. Maximum sustained winds are near 65 mph (100 km/h) with higher gusts. Little change in strength if forecast through Thursday. However, Henri could still become a hurricane by the weekend. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 80 miles (130 km) from the center. The estimated minimum central pressure is 998 mb (29.47 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- WIND: Tropical storm conditions are possible tonight across Bermuda and the nearby waters, particularly to the south of the island. SURF: Swells generated by Henri should continue to affect Bermuda during the next day or so. Swells could increase along the southeast and mid-Atlantic U.S. coasts by the end of the week. These swells could cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office.
