At 1100 PM AST (0300 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Fred was
located near latitude 15.3 North, longitude 22.4 West.  Fred is
moving toward the northwest near 15 mph (24 km/h).  A northwestward
motion at a slightly slower forward speed is expected through
Tuesday.  On the forecast track, the center will move near or over
some of the Cape Verde Islands early Monday morning.

Maximum sustained winds are near 70 mph (110 km/h) with higher
gusts.  Strengthening is expected, and Fred is forecast to become a
hurricane overnight.

Tropical storm force winds extend outward up to 80 miles (130 km)
from the center.

The estimated minimum central pressure is 995 mb (29.39 inches).


HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
WIND:  Tropical storm conditions are expected to reach portions of
the Cape Verde Islands in a few hours, with hurricane conditions by
early Monday morning.

STORM SURGE:  A storm surge is expected to produce coastal flooding
in areas of onshore winds in the Cape Verde Islands.  Near the
coast, the surge will be accompanied by large and dangerous waves.

RAINFALL:  Fred is expected to produce total rain accumulations of
3 to 5 inches over the Cape Verde Islands, with possible isolated
maximum amounts of 8 inches.  These rains could produce life-
