Re: appears to have jogged and stalled...

Rick, if that happens further, then perhaps. But, they've already got the westward motion at a slightly faster speed into their output and have already shifted somewhat west. It still should slow down over Florida -- it is entering a col region and about the only thing moving it right now is inertial momentum and reorganization wobbles -- but given the slightly faster track, the NHC decided to shift the 5p track a bit further to the left. We'll see if this is a trend or not; given the wishy-washy tendency of the models, chances are that it might not be.
