At 300 PM GMT (1500 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Theta was
located near latitude 31.8 North, longitude 20.2 West. Theta is

motion with a gradual decrease in forward speed is expected through
Sunday. A sharp northward turn is forecast to occur Sunday night,
with that motion continuing into early next week.

Maximum sustained winds are near 40 mph (65 km/h) with higher gusts.
Weakening is expected over the next few days, and Theta is forecast 
to become a remnant low by tonight, and dissipate early next week.

from the center.
