    DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
    ----------------------
    At 200 PM AST (1800 UTC), the center of Hurricane Earl was located
    near latitude 26.0 North, longitude 65.7 West. Earl is moving toward
    the north near 8 mph (13 km/h), and a continued northward motion is
    expected to continue through tonight. A turn toward the
    north-northeast and then northeast with an increase in forward speed
    is expected to begin on Thursday and continue through early
    Saturday. On the forecast track, the center of Earl is expected to
    pass to the southeast of Bermuda on Thursday night.

    Data from an Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft indicate
    that maximum sustained winds remain near 85 mph (140 km/h) with
    higher gusts. Strengthening is forecast during the next couple of
    days, and Earl is expected to become a major hurricane on Thursday.

    Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 40 miles (65 km) from
    the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 140
    miles (220 km).

    The minimum central pressure estimated from the Air Force Reserve
    Hurricane Hunter aircraft is 974 mb (28.76 inches).

    WIND: Tropical storm conditions are expected on Bermuda beginning
