Saturday, Sep 27 update from the National Hurricane Center: Latest on the Potential Tropical Cyclone
The National Hurricane Center's 2 a.m. Saturday advisory reported that the potential tropical cyclone is in the Atlantic Ocean, 135 miles northwest of the Eastern Tip of Cuba and 145 miles south of the Central Bahamas. Packing maximum sustained winds of 35 mph, it is tracking northwest at 8 mph.
