For the time being, it is at least temporarily slowed or stalled just off the coast (basically over Cozumel), though even the slightest drift to the east will bring it over land and commence weakening. Keep in mind that most of the models don't have Wilma getting picked up until around 48 hours or more, so it could slow to 1 mph and still end up over land for quite a long time, unless it starts drifting away from the coast. Unless it somehow starts drifting more to the east, it will be practically impossible for this thing to not make landfall over the Yucatan sooner or later, even if it slows to almost no movement at all.
...It must be a remarkable experience to be on the NE aspect of that Island... They been IN the eye now for over 2 hours and that just must be very interesting...
