    DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
    ----------------------
    At 500 AM AST (0900 UTC), the center of Hurricane Humberto was
    located near latitude 23.9 North, longitude 63.3 West. Humberto is
    moving toward the west-northwest near 13 mph (20 km/h). A turn
    toward the northwest is expected this morning, followed by a turn to
    the north-northwest on Monday evening. Humberto is forecast to then
    turn north-northeastward and move west of Bermuda by Tuesday
    evening.

    Maximum sustained winds are near 155 mph (250 km/h) with higher
    gusts. Humberto is an extremely dangerous category 4 hurricane on
    the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Humberto should remain a
    powerful major hurricane for the next few days.

    Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 35 miles (55 km) from the
    center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 140 miles
    (220 km).

    The estimated minimum central pressure is 929 mb (27.44 inches).


    HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
    ----------------------
    SURF: Swells generated by Humberto will continue to affect portions
    of the northern Leeward Islands, the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico,
    and Bermuda through much of this week. Swells from Humberto will
    also affect the U.S. East Coast beginning Monday. These swells are
    likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions.
    Please consult products from your local weather office.
