Crazy high wind T-storm in Miami late last night

Anyone else here in Miami area wake up at 3am to the sound of howling wind, rattling windows and thunder? Im at UM, and me and frieds all recall this crazy short lived storm late last night. Result of Wilma? i cant imagine, we are on the other side of the peninsula, and about 2-3days from hurricane landfall.

I am in Punta Gorda (remember Charley?). We have been getting cloudy skies and some rain associated with Wilma since late yesterday. The clouds/ storms associated with a hurricane extend out 100's of miles, and I do not doubt what you described was an outer band. Of course I am not too knowledgable in the science of it, just what I can see on the weather maps, and what I have experienced in the past.

I am in Port St Lucie and we had torrential rain and some winds here also around that same time, maybe it was between 4 and 5 am and the Met on channel 5 this morning said the rain here in St lucie was from Wilma. I thought that was odd but that is what he said.I was watching Dean T on 5 in WPB, I really like the team of mets there, Dean and Steve the most.
