At 1100 AM AST (1500 UTC), the center of Hurricane Larry was located
near latitude 22.1 North, longitude 52.9 West.  Larry is moving
toward the northwest near 10 mph (17 km/h), and this general motion
is expected to continue through Wednesday, followed by a turn 
toward the north-northwest and north on Thursday.
 
Maximum sustained winds are near 120 mph (195 km/h) with higher
gusts.  Larry is a category 3 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson
Hurricane Wind Scale.  Some fluctuations in intensity are possible
during the next couple of days.  Thereafter, some gradual weakening
is forecast.
 
Larry is a large hurricane.  Hurricane-force winds extend outward 
up to 70 miles (110 km) from the center, and tropical-storm-force 
winds extend outward up to 175 miles (280 km).
 
The estimated minimum central pressure is 956 mb (28.23 inches).
 
 
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
SURF:  Swells generated by Larry are affecting the Lesser Antilles
and are expected to spread westward to portions of the Greater
Antilles, the Bahamas, and Bermuda today through Tuesday.
Significant swells should reach the east coast of the United States
and Atlantic Canada by midweek and continue affecting these shores
through the end of the week.  These swells are likely to cause
life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult
products from your local weather office.
