Maximum sustained winds are near 65 mph (100 km/h) with higher
gusts. Little change in the maximum wind speed is expected during
the next couple of days. Sebastien is forecast to become
post-tropical by Monday and it could become a remnant trough of low
pressure sooner than that.

Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 115 miles (185 km)
from the center.

The estimated minimum central pressure is 997 mb (29.44 inches).


HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND

could bring gusty winds and rain to the Azores beginning Sunday.
Please see products issued by the Portuguese Institute for the Sea
and the Atmosphere (IPMA) for more information.

SURF:  Swells generated by Sebastien are expected to reach the
Azores early next week. These swells are likely to cause
life-threatening surf and rip current conditions.
