DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 800 PM AST (0000 UTC), the center of Post-Tropical Cyclone Teddy
based on the Marble Mountain, Newfoundland radar and conventional
satellite imagery was located near latitude 49.7 North, longitude
59.2 West. The post-tropical cyclone is moving toward the
north-northeast near 31 mph (50 km/h), and this general motion is
expected to continue through Thursday.  On the forecast track, the
center of Teddy should move closer to the northwestern Newfoundland
coast tonight and into the Labrador Sea on Thursday before merging
with a larger extratropical low.
 
Maximum sustained winds are near 50 mph (85 km/h) with higher
gusts.  Little change in strength is forecast before the system
merges with the extratropical low on Thursday.  A weather station
located at Stephenville, Newfoundland recently reported a gust to 47
mph (76 km/hr).
 
Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 205 miles (335 km)
from the center.
 
The estimated minimum central pressure is 975 mb (28.80 inches).
