general motion is expected to continue through today. Leslie is
then forecast to slowly meander over the central Atlantic through
early next week.

Maximum sustained winds are near 45 mph (75 km/h) with higher gusts.
Some strengthening is expected, and Leslie could transition
into a tropical cyclone during the couple of days.

Winds of 40 mph extend outward up to 255 miles (405 km) from the
center.

The estimated minimum central pressure is 991 mb (29.27 inches).

HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
SURF: Swells generated by Leslie will affect Bermuda, the east
coast of the United States, and most of the Greater and Lesser
Antilles through the weekend. These swells will likely cause
life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult
products from your local weather office.
