Recent dropsondes in the SE and NE eyewalls reported 128 kt and 110 kt surface winds, respectively. Surface winds from the dropsondes are consistently showing up as slightly stronger than flight-level winds, though whether the dropsonde obs are representative of sustained winds or gusts is open to speculation.
Wilma appears to have essentially stalled in the last 1-2 hours.
Between the 2:04 and 3:17 VDM's, Wilma has moved from 20 degrees 19 minutes and 86 d 43 m to 20 d 22 m and 86.42 m. (Borrowed from another forum.) Assuming they hit the center, that would mean a NNNE, which is not likely, but it is moving a little.
