I'm here in Tampa and I just heard a report that the trough to the west is pushing over and high to the east is falling back. Is there any truth to that? I was just told there would be more of a chance for stronger winds. Just wondering.




The 1PM update from NHC now states they expect a gradual turn toward the N-NW tonite & sunday. The 11 AM disc hinted at perhaps a shift to the east in the FL panhandle for ultimate landfall. I found this line interesting from the 1 PM update.

A STORM SURGE OF
8 TO 10 FEET IS POSSIBLE ALONG AND TO THE RIGHT OF WHERE THE CENTER
OF DENNIS CROSSES THE NORTHEASTERN GULF COAST ON SUNDAY.

Is the NHC tipping its hat? Do they expect a landfall in the big bend region of FL now? If so, that will probably mean a little worse weather for us folks on the west coast.
