.SYNOPSIS...Tropical Storm Jerry is near 15.7N 57.7W at 5 AM
EDT, moving west-northwest at 17 kt. Maximum sustained winds are
55 kt with gusts to 65 kt, and the minimum central pressure is
999 mb. Jerry will move to 17.0N 59.7W this afternoon, near
18.8N 61.7W Thu night, just northeast of the N Leeward Islands,
strengthen to a hurricane near 21.2N 62.8W Fri afternoon, to the
