Weakening is anticipated, and Gonzalo could become a remnant low or dissipate within the next 24 hours. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 185 miles (295 km) from the center. The estimated minimum central pressure is 1002 mb (29.59 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- SURF: Swells generated by Gonzalo are expected to affect portions of the Cabo Verde Islands through today before diminishing Sunday.
