I'll go out on a shaky limb and predict that Ophelia will not likely veer too far north or east and that she will either make the loop back the SW eventually or meander into the Florida east coast sooner or later.
According to Berg, one of the best Mets, Ophelia's northerly outflow is "shielding her" from the strong ridge that is carrying Nate out to sea. Which means, possibly, that she is starting the create her own environment in a small way.
I just hope that IF she does visit Florida, she will be a minimal 'cane.

Hey Lynn, are you back in the "Sunshine" state? Good to hear from you. Hope Ophelia doesn't blow back across Florida and into the GOM!

Disclaimer: 50% of the time I have no clue of what I am talking about. Chances are I am taking a less than educated guess that sounds good because 10 years ago I stole Mike Watkins book 'The Hurricane and its Impact'. For official information please direct yourself to the NHC and their cadre of weather geniuses.
