Maximum sustained winds are near 50 mph (85 km/h) with higher gusts. Additional weakening is expected tonight, especially after the Fay moves farther inland. Fay is expected to weaken to a tropical depression by Saturday morning and dissipate on Sunday. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 185 miles (295 km), mainly to the northeast and southeast of the center. A Weatherflow site at Larchmont Harbor, New York, recently reported a sustained wind of 35 mph (56 km/h) and a wind gust of 41 mph (67 km/h).
