Hurricane Frances won't hit Melbourne head-on. That priveledge goes to Vero Beach.

Considering the current model divergence, we're still not going to be sure what STATE Frances will hit till sometime tomorrow, at the earliest, much less picking specific cities.

Tomorrow? What storm are you watching? More like sometime Saturday. This hurricane's landfall is still 3 days away. They kept telling us Charley was going to hit Tampa up until an hour or two before it came ashore 200 miles south of there.

People are discounting a "Floyd" path and to tell you honestly, weather conditions may agree, but the prediction accuracy of all these "weather pundits" has been downright dismal all year long and a lot can happen in 72 hours. Look again at where this hurricane is located as of this morning. That's a long ways away. Then go back to previous hurricanes and track their paths. Follow the track of Hurricane Dennis (Dennis preceded Floyd) and show me a forecaster that accurately predicted that storm.

Stay safe.... but keep an eye out for the Gray Man.
