DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 100 PM AST (1700 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Dolly was
located near latitude 39.4 North, longitude 61.7 West. Dolly is
moving toward the east-northeast near 13 mph (20 km/h).  A turn 
toward the northeast with an increase in forward speed is expected 
tonight and on Wednesday.
 
Satellite-derived wind data indicate that maximum sustained winds 
have increased to near 45 mph (75 km/h) with higher gusts.
Weakening is forecast during the next day or two as Dolly moves 
over colder waters, and the system is expected to become 
post-tropical on Wednesday.  The low should then dissipate by early 
Thursday.
 
Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 70 miles (110 km)
to the south of the center.
 
The estimated minimum central pressure is 1002 mb (29.59 inches).
