Discussion
 
At 8:00 a.m., ET, the center of Tropical Storm Fred was located near latitude 18.0 north, longitude 69.1 west.  Fred is moving toward the west-northwest near 16 miles per hour, and a general west-northwestward motion is expected to begin later today and continue for the next few days.  On the forecast track, the center of Fred is expected to be near or over Hispaniola later today, move near the Turks and Caicos Islands and the southeastern Bahamas on Thursday, and move north of the northern coast of central Cuba on Friday.
Maximum sustained winds are near 40 miles per hour with higher gusts.  Some weakening is likely while the system interacts with Hispaniola today.
 
Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 45 miles from the center.  La Romana, Dominican Republic, recently reported sustained winds of 35 miles per hour.
 
The estimated minimum central pressure from National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration Hurricane Hunter aircraft data is 1006 millibars (29.71 inches).
 
More information is available from the National Hurricane Center. Please monitor conditions from your local weather service for potential impacts to your community.
