Does Gustav look like it went alittle north after it passed the little body of land (not sure what it is)? I understand that it's probably a wobble but it has slowly been moving to the right throughout the day. But the NHC track seems not to change. Just wanted to get your thoughts. After looking at the second link. I believe it did move north.
First, that 'little body of land' is known as the Isle of Youth. It was known as the Isle of Pines until about 1978. Population of about 100,000. And yes, it sure looks to me like the eye has wobbled more north than west since about 10am this morning. Hope it is a wobble and any trend in that direction puts the effects of this thing much closer to the Fl west coast. We are already seeing enhanced storms and showers today in what seems like early spiral patterns across the state. Pretty active too. Keeping my fingers crossed and prayers going out for all in the path!
