 NICOLE IS MOVING TOWARD THE WEST-NORTHWEST NEAR 14 MPH. A TURN TOWARD THE NORTHWEST IS EXPECTED LATER TODAY, FOLLOWED BY A TURN TOWARD THE NORTH AND NORTHEAST ON FRIDAY. ON THE FORECAST TRACK, THE CENTER OF NICOLE WILL MOVE ONSHORE THE EAST COAST OF FLORIDA WITHIN THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS.

 MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS ARE NEAR 75 MPH WITH HIGHER GUSTS. LITTLE CHANGE IN STRENGTH IS EXPECTED UNTIL NICOLE MAKES LANDFALL ALONG THE FLORIDA EAST COAST. NICOLE IS EXPECTED TO WEAKEN WHILE MOVING ACROSS FLORIDA AND IS LIKELY TO BECOME A POST-TROPICAL CYCLONE BY FRIDAY AFTERNOON.

 NICOLE IS EXPECTED TO PRODUCE RAINFALL AMOUNTS OF 3 TO 5 INCHES WITH LOCALIZED HIGHER AMOUNTS OF UP TO 8 INCHES ACROSS THE NORTHWEST BAHAMAS TODAY THROUGH FRIDAY.

 THE FORMATION OF WATERSPOUTS AND TORNADOES IS POSSIBLE IN TRAILING RAINBANDS AS NICOLE PULLS FURTHER AWAY FROM THE BAHAMAS. BOATERS ARE ADVISED TO REMAIN IN PORT.

 RESIDENTS, IN THE NORTHWEST BAHAMAS ARE ADVISED TO REMAIN INDOORS WHEN WEATHER CONDITIONS DETERIORATE.  HURRICANE AND TROPICAL STORM CONDITIONS WILL LESSEN ACROSS THEISLANDS OF GRAND BAHAMA, ABACO AND THE BERRY ISLANDS TODAY AS NICOLE MOVES AWAY FROM THE BAHAMAS.
