Maximum sustained winds are near 50 mph (85 km/h) with higher gusts. Strengthening is forecast during the next couple of days, and Zeta is expected to become a hurricane before it moves near or over the Yucatan Peninsula late Monday. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 115 miles (185 km) from the center. The minimum central pressure based on data from the NOAA Hurricane Hunter aircraft is 997 mb (29.44 inches).
