moving toward the northeast near 29 mph (46 km/h) and this motion is
expected to continue with an increase in forward speed through
Sunday.

Maximum sustained winds are near 65 mph (100 km/h) with higher
gusts.  Some strengthening is forecast during the next 24 hours,
and Karl is expected to be at hurricane intensity when it becomes a
post-tropical cyclone on Sunday.  The post-tropical cyclone will be
absorbed by a large extratropical low Sunday night.

Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 175 miles (280 km)
from the center.

The estimated minimum central pressure is 992 mb (29.30 inches).


HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND

through tonight.  These swells are likely to cause life-threatening
surf and rip current conditions.  Please consult products from your
local weather office.
