it looks on radar like the center is reorganizing, maybe wnw or nw of it's earlier position.. just sort of a jump, as the center lacks the tightness and organization that lead to rapid strengthening. in spite of the improved appearance overall the pressure has actually risen 1mb today. it had almost cleared cuba yesterday afternoon before turning wnw, and that jaunt has prevented ernesto from being nearly the threat it could have been. track looks like it will come across the keys this evening near marathon, into the florida bay/cape sable area turning north around midnight. i'm guessing the intensity will be 45-50kt, pressure around 1002 mb. probably look about like it does now tomorrow night when it comes back off the ne coast of florida, and maybe just a tad stronger than the florida landfall on the SC coast. that's the official forecast, and i can't think of a better one.
