DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 200 PM AST (1800 UTC), the center of Hurricane Humberto was 
located near latitude 28.5 North, longitude 67.9 West. Humberto is 
moving toward the north-northwest near 13 mph (20 km/h). A gradual 
turn towards the north is expected over the next day or so. The 
hurricane is then forecast to turn and accelerate east-northeastward 
by late Tuesday or early Wednesday. On the forecast track, the 
center of Humberto will pass west, and then north of Bermuda on 
Tuesday and Wednesday.
 
Maximum sustained winds are near 140 mph (220 km/h) with higher 
gusts.  Humberto is a category 4 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson 
Hurricane Wind Scale. Gradual weakening is forecast after that, but 
Humberto is expected to remain a dangerous major hurricane into 
Tuesday.
 
Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 70 miles (110 km) from
the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 185
miles (295 km).
 
The estimated minimum central pressure is 942 mb (27.82 inches).
