DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 1100 AM AST (1500 UTC), the center of Hurricane Teddy was located
near latitude 28.3 North, longitude 62.8 West. Teddy is moving
toward the northwest near 9 mph (15 km/h). A turn toward the north
is expected tonight and then Teddy is forecast to continue generally
northward for another couple days. On the forecast track, Teddy will
approach Bermuda tonight, and the center should pass east of the
island Monday morning. Teddy should be approaching Nova Scotia on
Wednesday.

Maximum sustained winds are near 105 mph (165 km/h) with higher
gusts. Little change in strength is expected today. Teddy is
expected to remain a large and powerful hurricane through Monday,
then become a strong post-tropical cyclone on Tuesday.

Teddy remains a large hurricane. Hurricane-force winds extend
outward up to 80 miles (130 km) from the center and
tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 205 miles (335 km).

The estimated minimum central pressure is 964 mb (28.47 inches).
