    At 500 PM EDT (2100 UTC), the center of Post-Tropical Cyclone Fred
    was located near latitude 43.0 North, longitude 72.7 West. The
    post-tropical cyclone is moving toward the east-northeast near 14

    Maximum sustained winds are near 30 mph (45 km/h) with higher gusts.
    Little change in strength is forecast during the next 24 hours.

    The estimated minimum central pressure is 1010 mb (29.83 inches).

    RAINFALL:

    Post-Tropical Cyclone Fred is expected to produce an additional 1
    to 3 inches of rain through tonight across parts of interior New
    England, from Vermont and New Hampshire into Maine. This rainfall
    could lead to localized flash, urban, small stream and isolated
    river flooding impacts.

    As Fred continues to transition to an extratropical cyclone and
    move toward the Canadian Maritime Provinces, the threat of heavy
    rain will end across Maine by early Friday morning.
