Looking at the satellite it already looks a little N of where 5pm track was. The track had it clipping the peninsula tip, it looks like landfall will be just R of that spot near Pilon. The NHC said Jeanne was going in near St. Augustine 24 hours before it went rate over the top of me to the S (@120 mile difference).

No, I don't think it will skirt the East coast but certainly it could skirt the west coast. The ridge is too strong in my opinion.

East coast NO.

West coast possible but not likely

Panhandle strike probable but NOT a sure thing at all.

I could go for an east coast hit and then heading up to New England :D ...sry but its just way too boring up here during hurricane season and I mean New England's right there waiting for one...

seriously I think the chances that Dennis will "skirt" up the east coast is maybe 1% out of all possible tracks... west coast of Florida is possible... maybe 30% chance... the NHC still has Dennis striking on the AL/FL border
