At 1100 PM AST (0300 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Vicky was located near latitude 21.6 North, longitude 35.8 West. Vicky is moving toward the west near 10 mph (17 km/h). This general motion is expected through Thursday morning, followed by a westsouthwestward motion for a day or two after that.
Maximum sustained winds are near 40 mph (65 km/h) with higher gusts. Gradual weakening is anticipated, and Vicky is forecast to become a remnant low by late Thursday.
Tropicalstormforce winds extend outward up to 35 miles (55 km) from the center.
The estimated minimum central pressure is 1008 mb (29.77 inches).

A layer of cirrus clouds are covering the center of Vicky, but those clouds are associated with outflow from Hurricane Teddy. A combination of outflow from Teddy and an upper-level low to the north of Vicky is causing very strong westerly winds across the top of the struggling tropical storm. As a result, Vicky is producing minimal convection that is displaced to the east of the center. Recent ASCAT data indicated that the maximum winds are still near 35 kt, but Vicky's wind field is becoming smaller and the system is on the overall decline. There is no indication that the shear will decrease and Vicky should weaken as a result. The NHC forecast calls for Vicky to become a remnant low within 24 hours (if not sooner) and dissipate in a few days. Vicky is still heading generally westward. The tropical storm will likely continue westward through tomorrow morning, and then turn west-southwestward in the low-level tradewind flow after that for as long as it lasts. There is little spread in the track guidance and the NHC forecast is essentially the same as the multi-model consensus.
