14 Sep 2020 / Bermuda
A Hurricane Warning is in effect for Bermuda… …At 500am AST (0900 UTC), the center of the eye of Hurricane Paulette was located over northeastern Bermuda or near latitude 32.3 North, longitude 64.7 West. Paulette is moving toward the north-northwest near 12 mph (19 km/h).
This motion should continue early this morning. A turn toward the north is expected by late morning and continue into this afternoon. A faster motion toward the northeast is expected by this evening and continue through Wednesday.
On the forecast track, the eye of Paulette will continue to pass over Bermuda during the next couple of hours, followed by passage of the southern portion of the eyewall.
Maximum sustained winds have increased to near 90 mph (150 km/h) with higher gusts. Additional strengthening is likely when Paulette turns northeastward and moves away from Bermuda tonight through Tuesday.
Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 45 miles (75 km) from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 175 miles (280 km). Although winds have subsided across much of Bermuda due to Paulette's eye passage, hurricane-force winds will return shortly when the southern portion of Paulette's eyewall passes over the island. Tropical-storm-force winds will continue possibly into the early afternoon across the entire island…
…A dangerous storm surge is expected to produce significant coastal flooding on Bermuda in areas of onshore winds. Near the coast, the surge will be accompanied by large and destructive waves into this afternoon.
Paulette will bring periods of heavy rain to Bermuda through today, with rainfall of 3-6 inches expected…
