At 500 PM AST (2100 UTC), the center of Post-Tropical Cyclone Jose

post-tropical cyclone is moving toward the southeast near 3 mph (6
km/h) and a slow southeastward drift is forecast for the next day
or two.

Maximum sustained winds are near 45 mph (75 km/h) with higher gusts.
Some weakening is forecast during the next 48 hours.

Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 140 miles (220 km)
from the center.

The estimated minimum central pressure is 996 mb (29.42 inches).

HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
