...An Air Force Reserve hurricane hunter aircraft indicates Dennis
has become a hurricane over the central Caribbean Sea...
a Hurricane Warning remains in effect for Jamaica...the
southwestern peninsula of Haiti from the Dominican Republic border
westward...and portions of eastern Cuba for The Provinces of
Granma...Santiago de Cuba...and Guantanamo.
A Hurricane Warning means that hurricane conditions are expected
within the warning area within the next 24 hours. Preparations to
protect life and property should be rushed to completion.
A Tropical Storm Warning is in effect for the southern coast of the
Dominican Republic from Barahona westward to the Dominican Republic
border.
A Hurricane Watch is in effect for the Cayman Islands and for
portions of central and eastern Cuba...for The Provinces of Sancti
Spiritus...Ciego de Avila...Camaguey...Las Tunas...and Holguin.
Interests in the central and western Caribbean Sea should monitor
the progress of this system.
For storm information specific to your area...including possible
inland watches and warnings...please monitor products issued
by your local weather office.
At 6 PM EDT...2200z...the center of Hurricane Dennis was located
near latitude 16.1 north... longitude 72.5 west or about 315
miles... 505 km... east-southeast of Kingston Jamaica and about 335
miles... 540 km...south-southeast of Guantanamo Cuba.
Dennis is moving toward the west-northwest near 14 mph
...22 km/hr...and this motion is expected to continue during the
next 24 hours. On this track...Dennis will be centered near
Jamaica early Thursday.
Recent reports from an Air Force Reserve reconnaissance aircraft
indicate maximum sustained winds have increased to near 80 mph...
130 km/hr...with higher gusts. This makes Dennis a category one
hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson scale. Additional strengthening is
forecast during the next 24 hours.
Hurricane force winds extend outward up to 25 miles... 35 km...
from the center...and tropical storm force winds extend outward up
to 105 miles...165 km.
The minimum central pressure recently measured by a reconnaissance
aircraft is 985 mb...29.09 inches.
Dennis is expected to produce total rainfall accumulations of 4 to 8
inches over southern Hispaniola...Jamaica...eastern Cuba...and the
Cayman Islands. Isolated maximum amounts of 12 inches are possible
over the mountainous terrain of Jamaica. These rains could produce
life-threatening flash floods and mud slides.
Repeating the 6 PM EDT position...16.1 N... 72.5 W. Movement
toward...west-northwest near 14 mph. Maximum sustained
winds... 80 mph. Minimum central pressure... 985 mb.
