    SUMMARY OF 300 PM GMT...1500 UTC...INFORMATION
    ----------------------------------------------
    LOCATION...34.1N 33.0W
    ABOUT 430 MI...690 KM SW OF THE AZORES
    MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...60 MPH...95 KM/H
    PRESENT MOVEMENT...NE OR 40 DEGREES AT 3 MPH...6 KM/H
    MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...1004 MB...29.65 INCHES


    WATCHES AND WARNINGS
    --------------------
    There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect.


    DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
    ----------------------
    At 300 PM GMT (1500 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Fay was
    located near latitude 34.1 North, longitude 33.0 West. Fay is moving
    toward the northeast near 3 mph (6 km/h) and this motion is expected
    to continues through the rest of the day. Afterwards a turn to the
    southwest is expected on Monday.

    Maximum sustained winds have increased to near 60 mph (95 km/h)
    with higher gusts. Additional strengthening is expected during the
    next day or so, and Fay could approach hurricane intensity tonight.
    A gradual weakening trend is expected to begin on Monday.

    Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 45 miles (75 km)
    from the center.

    The estimated minimum central pressure is 1004 mb (29.65 inches).


    HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND

    Tropical Storm Fay Discussion Number 5
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL062026
    300 PM GMT Sun Sep 20 2026

    Deep convection continues to build near the center of Fay over the
    last several hours. The current objective intensity estimates from
    UW-CIMSS are in the range of 39-52 kt, and the most recent TAFB
    Dvorak fix was a T3.0/45 kt. In addition, there was an ASCAT pass
    that showed a peak wind vector of 43 kt. Given the uncertainties
    due to undersampling, the initial intensity for the storm has been
    raised to 50 kt. The cyclone continues to remain very compact with
    its tropical-storm-force winds estimated to extend out to about 40
    n mi.

    Both a relatively moist environment and positive interactions
    with an approaching mid- to upper-level trough should allow Fay to
    further intensify for the next 12 to 24 hours. After the trough
    lifts on Monday, the increase in wind shear and dry air should lead
    to a gradual weakening of the cyclone. The current NHC forecast
    calls for Fay to become a post-tropical remnant low by Tuesday and
    then dissipate by the end of the week. The official intensity
    forecast is a little higher than the model guidance in the short
    term to account for the storm's structure being more improved and
    the expected baroclinic support from the trough. This small system
    could approach hurricane strength later today or tonight.

    Fay is slowly moving off to the northeast, with the initial motion
    estimated around 010/5 kt. This general motion should continue for
    the rest of the day. However, a low- to mid-level ridge is expected
    to build to the north of the storm by Monday, which will cause Fay
    to turn southwestward and gradually accelerate in that direction
    over the course of the forecast period. The current NHC track
    forecast is similiar to the previous track forecast with a few
    minor adjustments and remains in good agreement with HCCA and
    GDMI.
