Maximum sustained winds have increased to near 40 mph (65 km/h) 
with higher gusts. Arlene is expected to weaken by tonight, and it 
is forecast to degenerate into a remnant low on Saturday.
 
Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 70 miles (110 km)
northeast of the center.
 
The estimated minimum central pressure based on data from the Air 
Force Hurricane Hunters is 1002 mb (29.59 inches).

----------------------
RAINFALL: Rainfall amounts of 1 to 2 inches with localized higher
amounts up to 5 inches are possible through Saturday across portions
