Fay was centered about 45 miles (65 kilometers) south of Bermuda early Sunday and moving north-northeast at 17 mph (28 kph). The storm had maximum sustained winds of 70 mph (110 Fay was expected to pass just southeast of Bermuda before dawn, dumping up to 5 inches (13 centimeters) of rain in some areas. Bermuda’s government weather service warned that the storm would cause hazardous surf throughout Sunday.
