I thought it looked like a stall on radar just off the coast of Cuba? Looks like she's gearing up for the journey north. Still expecting a landfall around Port Charlotte/Manasota Key?

Just a thought.
Tampa has always feared a storm moving East into Tampa Bay and pushing a storm surge.
Irma on present Track would likely force some of Tampa Bay to the west before a wind reversal would fill it back up after the Storm passes.

Any idea on how this stall will effect the future track?

Just got back up, appears it's about to make landfall right now. Middle/Lower keys cell service went out a few minutes ago also. Water being pulled offshore along the west coast of Florida right now.
