963 mb is absurdly low for a cat 1 hurricane, but this is probably approaching cat 2 as we speak.

Looking at the IR, the section that's over the Caribbean currently seems to have more than one hot spot. Perhaps resulting in unusually slow wind speed for such a low pressure?

But it looks like the Cuban land mass is about to 'lance' the largest group of those hot spots to the northeast of Wilma's center.

When in doubt, take the word of the National Hurricane Center.
