If you read the 11am disco, they talk about the shear issue. Margie is correct...they are trying to prepare us for what I think will be a major hurricane at landfall. I can't explain it as well as they can, so that's why I'm directing you there.
Scott....almost every channel I've watched...including TWC...has pointed out that the system in CA has finally begun to move, which is *helping* with Wilma's forward movement. It may not be the only thing, but it's one of the reasons it is beginning to move.
HankFrank...your Dad will be in my neck of the woods...I live in Lakeland. If it hits south of us, it will be ugly.
