northward to New England should monitor the progress of Jose.
For storm information specific to your area, including possible
inland watches and warnings, please monitor products issued by your

DISCUSSION AND 48-HOUR OUTLOOK
------------------------------
At 1100 PM EDT (0300 UTC), the center of Hurricane Jose was located
near latitude 32.2 North, longitude 71.6 West. Jose is moving
toward the north near 9 mph (15 km/h) and this general motion is
expected to continue through Monday night. A turn toward the
north-northeast is expected on Tuesday. On the forecast track, the
center of Jose is forecast to pass well offshore of the Outer Banks
of North Carolina on Monday, and pass well east of the Delmarva
peninsula Monday night and Tuesday.
Reports from a NOAA and Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft
indicate that the maximum sustained winds are near 90 mph (150 km/h)
with higher gusts. Little change in strength is expected during
the next day or so, and Jose is forecast to remain a hurricane
through Tuesday.
Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 60 miles (95 km) from the
center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 205 miles
(335 km).
The lastest minimum central pressure estimated from reconnaissance
data is 972 mb (28.71 inches).
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
WIND: Tropical storm conditions are possible within the watch
area by Tuesday.
SURF: Swells generated by Jose are affecting Bermuda, the Bahamas,
and much of the U.S. east coast. These swells are likely to cause
dangerous surf and rip current conditions for the next several
days in these areas. For more information, please consult products
from your local weather office.
RAINFALL...Jose is expected to produce total rain accumulations of 3
to 5 inches over eastern Long Island, southern Rhode Island, and
southeast Massachusetts, including Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket
through Wednesday. Jose is also expected to produce total rain
accumulations of 1 to 3 inches along the Mid Atlantic coast, and
from southeast New York to coastal Maine. This rainfall could cause
isolated flooding.

At 1100 PM AST (0300 UTC), the center of Hurricane Maria was located
near latitude 14.2 North, longitude 58.4 West. Maria is moving
toward the west-northwest near 13 mph (20 km/h), and this motion

Leeward Islands late Monday and Monday night and then over the
extreme northeastern Caribbean Sea Tuesday and Tuesday night.
Maximum sustained winds have increased to near 85 mph (140 km/h)
with higher gusts. Rapid strengthening is forecast during the next
48 hours, and Maria is expected to become a major hurricane as it
moves through the Leeward Islands.
Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 15 miles (30 km) from the
center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 105 miles
(165 km).
The estimated minimum central pressure is 979 mb (28.91 inches).
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
WIND: Hurricane conditions are first expected within portions of
the Leeward Islands by late Monday, with tropical storm conditions
beginning during the day on Monday. Hurricane conditions are
possible within the hurricane watch area by Tuesday, with tropical
storm conditions possible Monday night. Tropical storm conditions
are possible in the tropical storm watch area later tonight through
Monday night.
STORM SURGE: A dangerous storm surge accompanied by large and
destructive waves will raise water levels by as much as 5 to 7 feet
above normal tide levels near where the center of Maria moves
across the Leeward Islands.
RAINFALL: Maria is expected to produce total rain accumulations of
6 to 12 inches with isolated maximum amounts of 20 inches across the
central and southern Leeward Islands, including Puerto Rico and the
U.S. and British Virgin Islands, through Wednesday night. Maria is
also expected to produce total rain accumulations of 2 to 4 inches
with isolated maximum amounts of 8 inches over the remaining
northern Leeward Islands from Barbuda to Anguilla, as well as the
Windward Islands and Barbados. Rainfall on all of these islands
could cause life-threatening flash floods and mudslides.
SURF: Swells generated by Maria are affecting the Lesser Antilles.
These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip
current conditions. Please consult products from your local
weather office.
