It's going to be very interesting to see where official landfall is assigned. Radar and satellite both show Everglades city, but the last offshore and first onshore NHC plots say 2.7 miles south of the southern tip of Marco Island, basically the center of Kice Island. Those two points are between 13 and 18 miles apart, depending on which islands near Everglades City are actually above normal sea level.

Channel 2 Orlando reports 8 to 10 t-storms w/ rotation. Orange / Osceola / Brevard counties pay attention!

I just tried calling family in Weston, outside Ft Lauderdale, and was surprised to get through. They said they lost power about 6am and 'it sounds like a hurricane out there' but they're as prepared as they can be.

Just woke up a few minutes ago....and haven't read through the posts... & can't get TV reception.

..Is it true Wilma came in at 125 mph?

When I was up at 2AM, she was still 115.
