On the central Florida Hurricane website at 7

Update - 8PM EDT Tuesday, Sept 7, 2010
Ex-Gaston system located about 65 miles south of Puerto Rico at 08/00Z moving west at 18 knots with sustained winds of 25 to 30 knots and a central pressure of 1009MB. It was at this point in time that some of the model runs about 4 days ago suggested that the system would enter an environment a little more suited to development - and the convective activity this evening is the best that the wave has mustered in quite some time. Its hard to recall that this system was actually a tropical storm six days ago when it was barely off the African coast. Most of the intensity models still develop the system into a hurricane in three days while moving it generally westward through the northern Caribbean - and a potential threat to Jamaica after that. Bottom line is that the Ex-Gaston system still has potential for redevelopment.
