Weakening is forecast during the next couple of days, and Melissa is expected to become a remnant low by tonight or early Sunday.

HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- WIND: Wind gusts to 40 mph are possible across portions of Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard, and Nantucket during the next few hours.

SURF: Swells generated by Melissa are affecting much of the U.S. east coast, portions of the Bahamas, Bermuda, and Atlantic Canada. These swells will result in life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office.
