DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 800 AM AST (1200 UTC), the center of Hurricane Humberto was
located located by an Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft
near latitude 27.5 North, longitude 67.3 West. Humberto is moving
toward the northwest near 14 mph (22 km/h). A gradual turn towards
the north is expected over the next day or so. The hurricane is then
forecast to turn and accelerate east-northeastward by late Tuesday
or early Wednesday. On the forecast track, the center of Humberto
will pass west, and then north of Bermuda on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Maximum sustained winds have increased to near 145 mph (230 km/h)
with higher gusts. Humberto is a category 4 hurricane on the
Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Fluctuations in intensity are
possible today. Gradual weakening is forecast after that, but
Humberto is expected to remain a dangerous major hurricane into
Tuesday.

Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 60 miles (95 km) from
the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 185
miles (295 km).

The estimated minimum central pressure is 938 mb (27.70 inches)
based on Air Force Reserve reconnaissance dropsonde data.
