    DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
    ----------------------
    At 800 AM AST (1200 UTC), the center of Hurricane Teddy was located
    near latitude 28.0 North, longitude 62.7 West. Teddy is moving
    toward the west-northwest near 12 mph (19 km/h), and a northwestward
    motion will likely resume by this afternoon. A turn toward the north
    is expected tonight and then Teddy is forecast to continue generally
    northward for another couple days. On the forecast track, Teddy will
    approach Bermuda tonight, and the center should pass east of the
    island Monday morning.

    Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 105 mph (165 km/h)
    with higher gusts. Little change in strength is expected today.
    Teddy is expected to remain a large and powerful hurricane through
    Monday, then become a strong post-tropical cyclone on Tuesday.

    Teddy is a large hurricane. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up
    to 80 miles (130 km) from the center and tropical-storm-force winds
    extend outward up to 205 miles (335 km).

    The estimated minimum central pressure based on data from an Air
    Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft is 964 mb (28.47 inches).


    HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND

    WIND: Tropical storm conditions are expected to affect Bermuda as
    early as tonight and could linger into Monday night.

    SURF: Large swells generated by Teddy are affecting the Lesser
    Antilles, the Greater Antilles, the Bahamas, Bermuda, the east coast
    of the United States, and Atlantic Canada. These swells are likely
    to cause life- threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please
