At 1100 PM HST (0900 UTC), the center of Hurricane Lowell was

gusts.  Lowell is a category 3 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson
Hurricane Wind Scale.  Some fluctuations in intensity are expected
during the next few days. However, Lowell is expected to remain a
major hurricane through the weekend.

Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 45 miles (75 km) from the
center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 140 miles
(220 km).

The estimated minimum central pressure is 947 mb (27.97 inches).
