With the models starting to agree on a northerly turn for Wilma where, if anywhere, in the U.S. do you think she'll make landfall? I choose Naples

Anywhere south of Tampa on the southwest coast of Florida from the Sarasota/Bradenton area south to Naples, the extreme southern tip of Florida and the uppermost keys of the Florida Keys. The area from Venice (just north of Fort Myers) south to Naples and the Ten Thousand Islands/Marco Island is, in my opinion for now, the most likely area to get hit.

South of Tampa... I just don't know where. I'm starting to really think a major problem for all of the Keys and Miami.

My best guess is between sarasota and the dry tortugas. 6+ days out this is a pretty narrow cone, and i think that is pretty accurate.
