...Jeanne aiming at Florida...a Hurricane Watch will likely be
required early Friday...
a Hurricane Watch is in effect for the northwestern Bahamas. A
Hurricane Watch means that hurricane conditions are possible in
the watch area within 36 hours.
A tropical storm watch remains in effect for the central Bahamas...
including Cat Island...the Exumas...Long Island...Rum Cay...and
San Salvador.
A Hurricane Watch will likely be issued for portions of the Florida
East Coast on Friday morning. Interests on the Florida Peninsula
should closely monitor the progress of Jeanne.
At 11 PM EDT...0300z...the eye of Hurricane Jeanne was located near
latitude 26.1 north...longitude 70.8 west or about 390 miles...
630 km...east of great abaco island.
Jeanne is moving toward the west near 6 mph ... 9 km/hr. This
motion is expected to continue during the next 24 hours with a
gradual increase in forward speed.
Maximum sustained winds are near 105 mph...165 km/hr...with higher
gusts. Some strengthening is possible during the next day or two.
Hurricane force winds extend outward up to 45 miles... 75 km...
from the center...and tropical storm force winds extend outward up
to 140 miles...220 km.
Estimated minimum central pressure is 966 mb...28.53 inches.
Dangerous surf and rip currents...caused by large swells generated
by Hurricane Jeanne...are possible along the southeastern U.S.
Coast and the northwest and central Bahamas for the next few days.
Repeating the 11 PM EDT position...26.1 N... 70.8 W. Movement
toward...west near 6 mph. Maximum sustained winds...105 mph.
Minimum central pressure... 966 mb.
For storm information specific to your area...please monitor

Hurricane Jeanne Discussion Number 42
Statement as of 11:00 PM EDT on September 23, 2004
although the eye is quite distinct and there is good organization...
the convection has weakened. This was probably caused by the fact
that Jeanne has been meandering for a day or so...resulting in
upwelling and cooler waters. The winds could be lowered at this
time but I rather wait for the recon which will check the intensity
early Friday. So for now the winds remain at 90 knots. The
upper-level environment is expected to be favorable between the
Bahamas and Florida...and as soon as Jeanne moves westward over
this area...it will encounter warmer waters. Some strengthening is
then anticipated.
There has been no change in the steering pattern and it appears that
the high pressure system developing north of the hurricane has
begun to force Jeanne westward or 270 degrees at 5 knots. As the
high continues to build...the hurricane should increase in forward
speed and should be very near the East Coast of Florida in about 48
hours. By then...the high will continue moving eastward and the
hurricane will turn gradually to the northwest around the high.
This turn could either occur over the peninsula or along the East
Coast. Nevertherless...Jeanne is a threat to Florida. This is in
agreement with global models and the consensus...which consistently
have been bringing the hurricane over or near Florida for the past
few runs.

Well compared to 105 kt it is, but it can cause power outages and down trees. Ivan only had 50-60 mph GUSTS here and we had a mess.
