Wednesday Afternoon Update

Henri almost a hurricane

The Weather Situation
Henri is expected to become a hurricane soon. The water vapor imagery shows deep convection wrapped around the center and an eye trying to form.

Current tropical weather
As of 5:00 PM AST Tropical Storm Henri was centered at 29.9 N / 67.6 W or about 790 miles south of Nantucket, MA. It was moving west at 9 mph. Officially top sustained winds are estimated at 70 mph. Pressure was estimated at 995 hPa (mb).

Tropical Weather Forecast:
Forecast models have had a bit of a different solution today. A few models take Henri east of Long Island, NY this weekend and near Cape Cod Monday. This shift west is due to models now forecasting a building high pressure area to the east of Henri in several days.
