12Z/ 6 AM MDT HWRF 10-Meter Max Wind Speeds.
(Tropical Storm Ernesto).

Tropical Storm Ernesto continues to battle wind shear which is inhibiting the storm from strengthening. At 6 AM MDT this morning Ernesto was located 40 miles west-southwest of St. Lucia. He continues his rapid pace westward at 24 mph. Tropical Storm Ernesto has sustained winds of 45 mph. A gust of 63 mph was reported in St. Lucia this morning as the storm moves near that location. His central pressure has dropped down to 29.59"/1002 MB.

Given Ernesto's current rapid pace to the west, he should be close to entering the Gulf of Mexico by the middle of next week. Conditions will become more favorable for Ernesto to strengthen in a few days as the wind shear he is currently battling decreases, and he moves over the warmer waters of the Caribbean.
