DISCUSSION AND 48-HOUR OUTLOOK
------------------------------
At 1100 AM EDT (1500 UTC), the center of Post-Tropical Cyclone Colin
was estimated near latitude 34.0 North, longitude 77.0 West. The
post-tropical cyclone is moving toward the northeast near 36 mph (57
km/h) and this motion is expected to continue with some increase in
forward speed this afernoon and tonight.  The center of Colin will
move near and parallel to the Outer Banks of North Carolina during
the next couple of hours, then offshore well east of the
mid-Atlantic coast later today.

Maximum sustained winds have increased to near 60 mph (95 km/h)
with higher gusts, although the system's strongest winds and
heaviest rains are located over water well southeast of the
center.  Some slight strengthening is possible today and tonight,
but gradual weakening is expected to begin on Wednesday.

Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 230 miles (370 km)
primarily to the southeast of the center.

The estimated minimum central pressure is 996 mb (29.42 inches).


HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
RAINFALL: Colin is expected to produce additional rainfall
amounts of 1 to 2 inches across far eastern North Carolina
and 1 to 3 inches, with isolated maximum amounts of 5 inches,
across central Florida through this evening.

STORM SURGE: Water levels remain elevated along the west coast
of the Florida peninsula, but are expected to subside by this
evening.

Localized coastal flooding and dangerous surf are possible along the
Outer Banks of North Carolina within the tropical storm warning
area. For information specific to your area, please see products
