DISCUSSION AND 48-HOUR OUTLOOK
------------------------------
At 1100 PM AST (0300 UTC), the center of Hurricane Joaquin was
located near latitude 40.0 North, longitude 53.1 West.  Joaquin is
moving toward the east-northeast near 29 mph (46 km/h) and the
system is expected to continue toward the east-northeast at a
faster forward speed through Thursday.

Maximum sustained winds are near 80 mph (130 km/h) with higher
gusts.  Some weakening is forecast during the next 48 hours.
Joaquin is expected to lose tropical characteristics by tomorrow
evening, and to become a large extratropical cyclone by Thursday.

Hurricane force winds extend outward up to 45 miles (75 km) from the
center and tropical storm force winds extend outward up to 275 miles
(445 km).

The estimated minimum central pressure is 974 mb (28.77 inches).


HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
SURF:  Swells generated by Joaquin will continue to affect Bermuda
during the next day or so.  Swells are affecting much of the
mid-Atlantic and northeast coast of the United States and are
increasing along coastal areas of Atlantic Canada, and these swells
are expected to continue for the next day or two.  Life-threatening
surf and rip current conditions are likely in association with these
swells.  Please consult products from your local weather office.
