At 500 AM AST (0900 UTC), the center of Hurricane Paulette was

is forecast to slow down and turn toward the south-southeast and
south late Thursday and Friday.

Maximum sustained winds are near 100 mph (155 km/h) with higher

expected to become a powerful extratropical cyclone later today.

Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 80 miles (130 km) from

The estimated minimum central pressure is 966 mb (28.53 inches).


HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
SURF: Swells generated by Paulette will continue to affect the
Atlantic Canada, Bermuda, the Bahamas, and portions of the east
coast of the United States through tonight. These swells are
