And Humberto is to be slowly tracking northeast 400 nmiles east of the Outer Banks with winds 65 kts still generating some degree of swell but getting absorbed by Imelda.	10.5 ft	60 degrees
Thursday 10/2	Up more	NE 20+ early	Imelda/Humberto swell fading from 10.4 ft @ 11-12 secs early Imelda is to start accelerating to the east positioned 800 nmiles east-southeast of Cape Hatteras with winds 80 kts likely not producing any more swell. Humberto is to have disintegrated while racing east and of no interest. And high pressure is to be building over the Northeast Coast but inland producing a gradient with Imelda resulting in northeast winds at 20-25 kt starting to get traction.	11.0 ft	65 degrees

And the gradient is to persist producing east winds at 20 kts streaming into the US East Coast from the Outer Banks southward producing windswell there.	6.5 ft	70 degrees
Saturday 10/4	Down some	NE 10+ early	Local windswell 5.8 ft @ 11 secs steady Imelda is to again race off to the east offering nothing. East fetch from the previous gradient is to continue at 15-20 kts streaming into the Southeast Coast south of the Outer Banks producing some more windswell.	5.5 ft	70 degrees
Sunday 10/5	Down more	ESE 5+ early	Local windswell/residual tropical swell combo fading from 5.1 ft @ 11-12 secs High pressure is to be off the Northeast Coast producing a fetch of east winds at 15-20 kts off and impacting the Southeast Coast mainly south of the Outer Banks producing more windswell.	5.0 ft	75 degrees
