are near 45 mph (75 km/h) with higher gusts.  Some strengthening is
forecast during the next several days.

The estimated minimum central pressure is 991 mb (29.27 inches).


HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND

SURF:  Swells generated by Leslie are affecting Bermuda and the
northern Leeward Islands and will reach other portions of the Lesser
Antilles, Greater Antilles, and Bahamas through Saturday.
Swells are expected to reach portions of the east coast of the
United States later this weekend.  These swells are likely to
cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions.  Please
consult products from your local weather office.
