Sadly, slowing down is worse news for points further north including Tampa. The longer it takes her to get picked up, the more potential northward movement she gains...

Not necessarily.

The key question is which buckles further - the high over MX or the high over mainland FL? If the trough buckles the high over MX, that favors a more northward track. If the other way, then the track is favored eastward.

I've been a fan of the MX high backing off......
