Re: Wilma Crosses over Cozumel

Was just listening to Chad on CNN. He was saying that the storm will weaken over land, strengthen over water. That part I understand. Then he said right now it's half-on, half-off. I'm not sure if he's talking about the eye or the whole hurricane. Just wondering, what is considered on land as far as weakening. Does the eye have to be onshore? If it's sitting like it is currently with the eye right offshore - say it does this for 24 hours. Is that a position that will cause it to strengthen or weaken?
