NOAA NHC Forecast Track<\/p><\/div>\n

Update: Hurricane Lee at 11am EDT was located near 26.4N\u00a0 67.2W, moving NNW at 8 kts with max winds 100 knots (115 mph).\u00a0 Significant wave heights currently to 13-14 meters (42-46 feet).\u00a0 Hurricane force winds extend outward 100 nm to the NE and 60 nm to the SE.\u00a0 50 knot (58 mph) winds extend out 130 nm to the NE and 90 nm to the SW.<\/p>\n

Lee is now making its turn towards the north which will take the core of the system to the west of Bermuda Thursday and Thursday night. Lee will be moving over cooler sea temperatures which will weaken the system. The forecast track brings Lee close to southeastern New England before reaching Maine and Atlantic Canada later in the weekend.<\/p>\n

Tropical storm conditions, heavy rainfall, and high surf are expected to impact Bermuda beginning early Thursday, and a Tropical Storm Warning is in effect for the island. There is an increasing risk of wind, coastal flooding, and rain impacts from Lee in portions of New England and Atlantic Canada beginning on Friday and continuing through the weekend.<\/p>\n

Currently the risk for gale force winds (34 kt\/39 mph) for Boston is about 20% and at Nantucket\u00a0 and Cape Cod,about 40-50%.<\/p>\n
