I think it's interesting that Dr. Lyons said "it is staying over Cuba longer...maybe longer than we had anticipated" and than pointed out the westward movement. The reason I say this is because obviously Dennis is struggling right now and I wonder what affect this will have on him as he begins to exit the island. Will it give the trough to the west more time to dig down? Will the high over EC of Florida erode further west? Will Dennis try to find a more favorable environment to recompose himself? If I remember correctly, Dr. Lyons also said that the eye was almost completely gone...so what will happen when re-emerges off land?
So many questions...so little time for answers.
BTW..here in Lakeland, we got so much rain our pool overflowed. We got at least 2" easily...my husband had to pump out the water. Unbelievable. That all happened within an hour's time, too.
