At 200 PM EDT (1800 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Imelda was located by Air Force reconnaissance data near latitude 23.9 North, longitude 77.3 West.

Imelda is moving toward the north near 7 mph (11 km/h). A faster motion to the north is expected later today and continuing through Monday.

On the forecast track, the center of the system is expected to move across the central and northwestern Bahamas this afternoon and tonight and then turn east-northeastward,
moving away from the southeastern U.S. by the middle part of this week.

Maximum sustained winds have increased to near 40 mph (65 km/h) with higher gusts. Strengthening is expected during the next few days, and Imelda is forecast to become a hurricane by late Monday or Tuesday.

Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 30 miles (50 km) from the center. The minimum central pressure estimated by aircraft dropsonde data is 998 mb (29.47 inches).
