Very simple Forcast the longer its over Land the more south it goes.
With this in mind i have not seen much movement lets hope it stays that way for awhile.




Looking at the IR loop.. the increasingly disorganized eye is moving.... albeit at a snail's pace. Looks like it will emerge off the Yucatan into the GOM right on the forecast track, but perhaps a few hours earlier than the forecast (note: I say perhaps, but I doubt it).

Update: Confirmed by NHC... WIlma is drifting northward as of the 8am advisory. Storm is located 10 miles WSW of Cancun. Winds are down to 120mph.
