DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 200 AM CVT (0300 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Vicky was
located near latitude 19.5 North, longitude 29.9 West.  Vicky is
moving toward the northwest near 7 mph (11 km/h), and a turn 
toward the west-northwest is expected within the next day or so, 
followed by a turn toward the west.
 
Satellite-derived wind data indicate that the maximum sustained 
winds are near 50 mph (85 km/h) with higher gusts.  Weakening is 
forecast due to strong upper-level winds during the next 48 hours, 
and Vicky is likely to degenerate into remnant low by Wednesday
 
Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 105 miles (165 km)
from the center.
 
The estimated minimum central pressure is 1000 mb (29.53 inches).
