This storm has been moving west or just north of due west for about 2 days now.

Looks like it may be wobbling a little but remember these things don't travel in straight lines.

Fact is, the NHC/TPC is USUALLY correct in tracking.

The system is getting stronger so it appears to be traveling more WNW ,but that is just the convection expanding. Its still looks like its moving due west to me or north of due west.

Last few hours it does seem to be showing a bit more WNW....we'll see.

From this angle, a few degrees here and there of west or north motion could mean the difference between a sunny day and hurricane conditions for Florida.

I've been staring at the loop. I just don't see any northward component whatsoever. Maybe I'm looking at the wrong center. :?:

Especially for the Keys, and SW Florida.

THe best we can hope for in Florida is for Dennis to continue moving at it's current speed. Any change in motion and speed will more than likely make Florida a bigger target.

This is not an official forecast. I will take bets against a SW Florida landfall. :D
