A 991 MB Storm low near 37N/69W or about 260 nm southeast of the New Jersey Coast and was moving northeast at 10 knots. Winds of 40-50 knots with significant wave heights of 5 to 8.5 meters (16-28 feet) are occurring within 120-150 nm north and west of the center. Shower and thunderstorm activity has become better organized and appears to be acquiring sub-tropical characteristics and if this trend continues, the National Hurricane Center may name this system.
During the next 36 hours, the low will move northeast, deepening to 980mb low near 40N/64W with winds increasing to 50-65 knots (storm to hurricane-force) with significant wave heights of 7-10 meters (23-33 feet) within 90 nm west of the center.
