DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 1100 AM AST (1500 UTC), the center of Hurricane Oscar was located near latitude 36.6 North, longitude 51.6 West. Oscar is accelerating toward the northeast near 29 mph (46 km/h), and an even faster motion toward the northeast or north-northeast over the north Atlantic Ocean is expected during the next couple of days. Maximum sustained winds are near 75 mph (120 km/h) with higher gusts. Oscar is expected to become an extratropical low over the north-central Atlantic Ocean later today. Although gradual weakening is expected during the next several days, Oscar is expected to remain a powerful post-tropical cyclone over the north-central and northeastern Atlantic Ocean into the weekend. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 35 miles (55 km) from the center, and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 275 miles (445 km). The estimated minimum central pressure is 979 mb (28.91 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- SURF: Large swells generated by Oscar will affect Bermuda through today. Please consult products from your local weather office, as these conditions could cause life-threatening surf and rip currents.
