At 1100 PM HST (0900 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Lane was
located near latitude 19.3 North, longitude 161.2 West. Lane is
moving toward the west near 8 mph (13 km/h), and this general motion
is expected to continue into Monday. A brief slowing in forward
motion is expected Monday night as Lane makes a turn toward
the northwest. Lane is then expected to accelerate northwestward by
Tuesday as it transitions to an extratropical low. 
 
Maximum sustained winds are near 40 mph (65 km/h) with higher gusts.
Some weakening is forecast during the next 48 hours, and Lane is
expected to become a post-tropical low on Monday. In a couple of
days, Lane may develop into a gale force extratropical low as it
passes over portions of the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands. 
 
Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 70 miles (110 km)
from the center.
 
The estimated minimum central pressure is 1004 mb (29.65 inches).
 
 
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
RAINFALL: Lingering moisture associated with Tropical Storm Lane
will produce heavy rainfall over portions of the main Hawaiian
Islands through Sunday, which could lead to additional flash
flooding and landslides.
