Maybe it's just me, but looking at everything I can look at right now, I can't not see anything that is going to keep it from maintaining it's track and riding up the coast. But I don't know much. No pro here!!!!

My Insurance company actually put a hold on new policies or policy changes yesterday. I called to see if I could up my coverage on my homeowners and they said, "sure, once the storm has passed." They had already froze all new policies or changes to a policy.

Yes, the only thing that changed in the US was this:
A HURRICANE WARNING IS ISSUED FOR THE LOWER FLORIDA KEYS FROM THE SEVEN MILE BRIDGE WESTWARD TO THE DRY TORTUGAS...
Everything else is the same.

"Dennis is then expected to move around the
western periphery of a subtropical ridge. Although this sounds
simple enough...the details of the turn around the ridge are
important for residents of Florida. In the latest model runs...the
GFS has shifted a little farther east and is now very close to the
GFDL track. These two models are the easternmost of the dynamical
suite. The U.K. Met. Office model remains well west of almost all
other guidance. Our forecast is adjusted only slightly to the east
and is very close to both the simple dynamical consensus track...
CONU...and to the superensemble."

Yes, they don't get the graphics updated as quickly as they do the rest of the information. I imagine it takes awhile to update that.
I don't remember what the state met's name is, but I do remember he was very smart -- and very calming!

Still moving at a decent speed to the NW(just a bit more W than N). In the last 24hrs it's gained more lat. than long. only twice between advisories. The other times it's moved more west than north. Have to keep an eye on that, and see when it starts trending to be more equal, or more N.

Space Shuttle Managment to meet in 1/2 hour to determine if they are going to roll back space shuttle. I believe they are not going to risk it, because of the sheer size of the storm. Its not that they are stating that it will hit , but if the storm wobbles some they are worried about higher gusts of winds.
Seems the news is now freaking out here..

Right now you should expect tropical storm force wind gusts.

I just watched Paul Delgatto (sp?) and his partner...he said that they are dropping all kinds of instruments to see what that High is doing/behaving and that the information coming back is that it is moving further east. They also said that we WILL feel effects even if it's 150-200 miles offshore.
On News Channel 8, that cone now has those lines of "error" into the western peninsula.
It will a nervewracking next 1-2 days...will it move? will it not move? I hate this part.

I am watching these model runs http://moe.met.fsu.edu/tcgengifs/ and it is a scary scenario to have the eye stay out over reasonably deep and very warm water, run up the coast, and landfall into the panhandle. Given that the worst of it is to the north and the east of the center, that means it would just beat the crap out of the state from north to south, punching us all the way up until it direct hits the big bend area over to St. Marks. Given the population centers on the west coast, if it does that this could be ugly. And whoever it was that just commented on having to sweat it out now for the next 2-3 days, I totally agree. This is very anxious time.

So...basically what they are saying is that this will be CLOSER to the western Florida peninsula because the weak high pressure ridge is moving to the east?
I know I must sound like the stupidest person in the world, but I'm not quite sure EXACTLY whether this is GOOD or BAD for Central Florida, LOL!
Thanks for being so patient!
