Nolo is moving toward the northwest near 9 mph (15 km/h). A turn to the west and then west-northwest is expected to occur over the next several days. Maximum sustained winds are near 60 mph (95 km/h) with higher gusts. Gradual strengthening is forecast to occur, and Nolo is expected to become a hurricane this weekend. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 115 miles (185 km) from the center. The estimated minimum central pressure is 993 mb (29.33 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- WIND: Tropical storm conditions are expected within the Tropical Storm Warning area from Nihoa to French Frigate Shoals today, with tropical storm conditions spreading westward from French Frigate Shoals to Maro Reef by tonight. Tropical storm conditions are possible from west of Maro Reef to Lisianski Island starting Saturday morning. SURF: Large surf associated with Nolo will continue to affect the Papahanaumokuakea Marine National Monument over the next several days.
