NHC Forecast Track Hurricane Tammy
Tammy will likely maintain max winds near 75-80 kts for the next 2-3 days as it moves north then northeast over warm sea surface temperatures and moderate wind shear. Drier air and increasing wind shear will start to weaken Tammy in 3-4 days leading to extratropical transition as blocking high pressure to the north turns the storm back towards the northwest.
