Background

Hurricane Lee is a classic Cape Verde hurricane that formed off West Africa, in a process that often produces some of the strongest North Atlantic hurricanes. After an explosive growth into a Category 5 hurricane over favourable conditions, it has weakened somewhat into a Category 3 hurricane as of September 9, UTC 0600, but it is expected to restrengthen as it sweeps over the ocean to the north of the Antilles.

Hurricane Lee is forecast to steer north after passing by the north of Hispaniola and Puerto Rico, posing high winds, rain and potential threat to the island of Bermuda.

Resolution Criteria

Resolves YES if Hurricane Lee brings tropical-storm-level winds (>34 knots, >39 mph) to any part of Bermuda while maintaining tropical characteristics.

Resolves NO if Hurricane Lee dissipates or becomes extratropical before the fulfilment of the condition for YES.

Will resolve based on Bermuda Weather Service and/or the National Hurricane Center data.

This is a market with a lower wind speed requirement compared to the one below:

I will not bet on this market, but I will put Ṁ200 in as subsidy.
