At 900 AM GMT (0900 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Margot was
located near latitude 34.0 North, longitude 41.4 West. Margot is

turn northward on Monday and eastward on Tuesday.

Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 40 mph (65 km/h) 
with higher gusts. Little change in strength is forecast during the

cyclone later today.
 
Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 175 miles (280 km)
from the center.
 
The estimated minimum central pressure is 1001 mb (29.56 inches).
 
 
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
SURF: Swells generated by Margot should continue to affect the
Azores for the next several days. These swells are likely to cause
life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult
products from your local weather office.
