Oh, ok... Sorry... I thought during last year's string of hurricanes some had mentioned Stewart being a she. My mistake.

Well I don't know. I just read the what he or she writes. I do remember a discussion about it last year, though.

Key West has now had sustained winds over 40 mph for 17 hours (sounds like Francis from last year, eh?) with gusts from 55-74 mph. Total rainfall now 4 inches. I would expect some damage even though winds not that high but due to the long duration. Oh, and 5 ft storm tide too.

Here in Land O Lakes, FL...(North of Tampa) we just had a squall come through that was impressive! Several rotations in this squall. The lake here had white caps. The wind is hallowing and rain coming down so hard at a angle and it feels like needles. A couple of trees have fallen. It is suppose to be more around 6 this evening.

All of Key West is without power, and a friend on Big Pine said they don't have power either.

Latest recon has pressure down to 962. Would expect 105MPH at next advisory and then at 4 110MPH and an increase in the forecast at landfall back to a Cat 3.

All,
Stacy Stewart is a Hurricane Specialist and Warning Coordination Meteorologist at the National Hurricane Center and has been forecasting hurricanes and tropical storms since 1986.
He is a he!
/grin
FYI...feeder bands are impacting us here in Charleston, SC. Lots of dark clouds, frequent lightning, and gusty winds. Poor day to be driving a convertible!
Cheers,
Anton

Yeah, talked to my buddy on Big Pine just 10 minutes ago, still most of the island without power. Some small parts do have power. He said its still fairly windy, but has been slowing down over the last 2 hours or so.

Does anybody know if the underwater terrain affects a hurricane's path?

Now they are mentioning the possibility of it becoming a cat3 again before landfall.

I think regaining Cat 3 is possible. However, I would expect some weakening prior to landfall due to cooler water. Landfall intensity probably no higher then a Cat 2.
BTW, Tornado Watch has been issueduntil 11:00PM; but apears to be only for the western half of Florida.
