DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 800 AM AST (1200 UTC), the center of Hurricane Earl was located 
near latitude 28.6 North, longitude 65.3 West.  Earl is moving 
toward the north near 10 mph (16 km/h).  A turn toward the 
north-northeast with a further increase in forward speed is expected 
today, followed by a turn toward the northeast on Friday.  On the 
forecast track, the center of Earl is expected to pass to the 
southeast of Bermuda this evening and tonight.
 
Data from the current NOAA Hurricane Hunter mission so far suggests 
that maximum sustained winds remain near 105 mph (165 km/h) with 
higher gusts.  Additional strengthening is forecast during the next 
couple of days, and Earl is expected to become a major hurricane 
later today.  The hurricane is forecast to become a powerful 
post-tropical low on Saturday.
 
Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 60 miles (95 km) from
the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 160
miles (260 km).
 
The minimum central pressure from the NOAA Hurricane Hunter 
reconnaissance data is 965 mb (28.50 inches).
