Thanks. I'll play aound with that and see what happens after Wilma does whatever it's going to do.
Florida watches have now become warnings.
Laz,
Do me a favor and look at this link (it's big and takes time to load) and tell me if that front that was supposed to come down and turn her right doesn't seem to dissapate a bit toward the end of the loop.

Some strengthening is forecast during the next 24 hours and Wilma could again become a major hurricane on Sunday. Movement toward north near 3 mph. Maximum sustained winds 100 mph. Minimum central pressure 959 mb.

"I swear these are the longest NHC advisories in their history."
It's a record-breaking year for even the advisories!
We're under a TS Warning now...
"It would be appropriately named Blam Blam."
Nope, too cold here. We have a forecast of 37 degrees Monday morning...that's five degrees from freezing, folks.
I'm on dial-up and they have been working on my phone lines since Katrina. There's so much noise, static, humming etc that I've been trying to get on-line since 4:00pm and I just made it.
Local news just suggested we make a last sweep of the property for loose objects tonight. Be back in a bit.
That I know! I pray that's the "worse" warning we get!
I've been watching the visible floater all day, and for the past few hours, she's already been shifting NNE, even though they keep saying her movement is to the north. It looks like a drift in anticipation of the actual turn.
So are we, NautiNurse, about 60-70 miles N of you in Citrus County. Getting a tad concerned now.
Geez...I used to take the ferry across from Cozumel and make landing there and drive on inland and do my own archaeological searches...lots and lots of undiscovered stuff on the Yucatan.
Might be a lot of new, old stuff get washed up on this. You might want to consider going back down there the first chance you get.
She's 9.7 miles NE of the projected (1000 Saturday) 2200 point, a few mph low on sustained winds, and less than 2.2 miles off the course track.
Accelerating a bit now, come 1000 Sunday, she'll turn onto her projected base course, really speed up, and tomorrow by ten pm, she'll be up near top speed. Supposed to pick up another 5 knots by 1000 tomorrow too.
Here we go.
Prayers for all of you in Florida, looks like it's time to duck!
