    At 900 AM GMT (0900 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Isaac was
    located near latitude 44.7 North, longitude 31.3 West. Isaac is
    moving toward the east-northeast near 15 mph (24 km/h). A turn
    toward the northeast at a similar forward speed is expected on

    Maximum sustained winds are near 65 mph (100 km/h) with higher
    gusts. Slow weakening is expected during the next several days.
    Isaac is forecast to become a post-tropical cyclone later today.

    Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 230 miles (370 km)
    from the center.

    The estimated minimum central pressure is 975 mb (28.80 inches).


    HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND

    SURF: Swells generated by Isaac will affect the Azores over the
    next few days. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening
    surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your
    local weather office.
