Re: Tropical Depression 8 Forms Northeast of Leewards, Gustav Moving Erratically, Strengthening

The local Met in Orlando explained Gustav is expected to work it's way around a high over Florida. He also said this high is scheduled to move out over the Atlantic next week and will block TD#8 from moving out to sea and move it back towards Florida.

My question is this: If the high moves earlier or if Gustav moves slower, is there a chance Gustav makes the turn toward Florida? It seems one of the most recent models has it going into the big bend area, Is Tampa or south in the mix?
