DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 800 PM EDT (0000 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Fay was
located over eastern New Jersey near latitude 40.1 North, longitude
74.3 West. Fay is moving toward the north near 14 mph (22 km/h). A
northward to north-northeastward motion at a faster forward speed is
expected tonight and Saturday. On the forecast track, the center of
Fay will move near or over portions of the New Jersey coast this
evening and then move inland over southeastern New York and western
New England tonight and Saturday.

Maximum sustained winds are now near 45 mph (70 km/h) with higher
gusts. Additional weakening is expected tonight, especially after
Fay moves farther inland. Fay is expected to weaken to a tropical
depression by Saturday morning and dissipate on Sunday.

Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 185 miles (295 km),
mainly over water to the east and southeast of the center. NOAA
buoy 44065 recently reported sustained winds of 33 mph (54 km/h) and
a wind gust of 43 mph (68 km/h).

The minimum central pressure estimated from surface observations is
1000 mb (29.53 inches).


HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND

Key messages for Fay can be found in the Tropical Cyclone Discussion
under AWIPS header MIATCDAT1 and WMO header WTNT41 KNHC and on the

RAINFALL: Fay is expected to produce 2 to 4 inches of rain with
isolated maximum amounts of 6 inches along and near its track from

Jersey, southeast New York, and portions of New England. This rain
could result in flash flooding and urban flooding in areas with
poor drainage where the heaviest amounts occur. Rapid rises on
small streams and isolated minor flooding is possible, but
widespread river flooding is not expected.

WIND: Tropical storm conditions will continue to spread northward
within the warning area through tonight.

STORM SURGE: Minor coastal flooding is possible in portions of
the Tropical Storm Warning area.
