DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 500 PM AST (2100 UTC), the center of Hurricane Humberto was
located near latitude 29.1 North, longitude 68.1 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. Weakening is forecast over the next several 
days, although 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).
