Yep.Of note is that with the latest coordinates (70.4 W, 21.8 N) DT's "break point one" he described on his website has been met...he stated that the failure of Frances to cross 70 degrees W  north  of  23.5 degrees N  would mean the 12z Tuesday UKMET Jacksonville/Savannah track is "not likely to work out."

His next "break point" in determining the future landfall area is whether Frances crosses 75 degrees W at or below 25 degrees N. This, he believes, is what it would take for a south/central Florida landfall route.

We shall see.
