DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 800 AM AST (1200 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Philippe was
located near latitude 29.9 North, longitude 64.9 West. Philippe
is moving toward the north-northeast near 18 mph (30 km/h). A
general northward motion with a further increase in forward speed is
expected through Saturday night. A turn toward the north-northwest
is forecast by early Sunday. On the forecast track, the center of
Philippe will pass near Bermuda later today, and then reach the
coast of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, or eastern Maine Saturday night
into Sunday.

Maximum sustained winds are near 50 mph (85 km/h) with higher
gusts. Some strengthening is possible over the next day or so, but
Philippe is expected to become post-tropical on Saturday.

Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 175 miles (280 km)
from the center. An elevated surface observing station at the
National Museum of Bermuda recently reported a sustained wind of
46 mph (74 km/h) and a gust to 57 mph (91 km/h).

The estimated minimum central pressure is 1003 mb (29.62 inches).

WIND: Tropical storm conditions are expected on Bermuda today.

RAINFALL: Rainfall totals of 1 to 3 inches expected across Bermuda
through today. This rainfall could result in flash flooding.

For portions of New York and New England, rainfall amounts of 1 to 3
inches, with local amounts of 5 inches, are expected with Philippe
as it moves through the region this weekend. Isolated to scattered
instances of urban and flash flooding are expected.

For portions of Southeast Canada, rainfall amounts of 1 to 3 inches,
with local amounts of 5 inches, are expected with Philippe as it
moves through the region this weekend. Isolated to scattered
instances of urban and flash flooding are expected.

SURF: Large swells from Philippe and another weather system will
continue to affect Bermuda for the next several days. Swells are
also reaching portions of the southeastern U.S. coast and will
spread northward along the east coast to Atlantic Canada during the
next couple of days. These conditions are likely to cause
life-threatening surf and rip currents. Please consult products
from your local weather office.
