Well, I'm still willing it this way. They haven't revised the track westward yet, but they may soon. From the national hurricane center 5pm discussion:
ALTHOUGH THE OFFICIAL FORECAST COULD HAVE BEEN SHIFTED A LITTLE WESTWARD DUE TO THE NEW GUIDANCE...IT IS NOT PRUDENT TO MAKE A CHANGE AT THIS TIME. THE OFFICIAL FORECAST IS NOW BASICALLY TO THE RIGHT OF THE GUIDANCE ENVELOPE...AND KEEPS THE HURRICANE ON A NORTHWARD TRACK VERY CLOSE TO THE FLORIDA WEST COAST.
The barometric pressure is falling here, too, so the high over this way that would push the storm away from us is retreating.Meanwhile, turn the tv off, put on some soothing music, close your eyes and reelllaaaxxxxxxxxx.
Easier said than done, I know, but try.......
