The problem is he thought you said what funster said because somehow, the quotes keep getting screwed up. I'll go back and fix them.

I think it's still offshore, according to this radar from Punta del Este.

You don't use the Houston radar for a hurricane near Miami, so why use that radar? Use this one.

It's not a crime to say it is offshore although even the ghost llc i was tracking is now gone or inland. It's hard to see a center anywhere now - we are probably forced to wait until it shows up on the other side somewhere.

it also appears in that radar image that inflow from the south of cuba is feeding directly into the convective mass, not to the vortex SW of the convection which appears to have just about completely dissipated in the last couple images of the radar loop

ya well given this things speed it seems to me 1 of 2 things may happen

it will enter the fla straits around between 530 and 630 am. then

it will reach the SW keys by around 1pm (or should it direction be due N) key largo around 3 pm

or it will slow down and intensify alot.

It appears that an inner core has consolidated and this could be a hurricane by any time tomorrow, though im not sure. This definitely has strengthened since this evening though.

Um the center's extremely clear and it definitely looks inland. She looks great as well, probably a 65 mph landfall based solely on radar. (I don't have any other tools to use as I just logged in after several hours)

well it's starting to get me thinking

ARIC you have some good knowledge, are there any thing that would make you think this could slow down rapidly while over the florida straits, i'm just thinking worst case now, because S FL residents really don't have that much time , again i'm not thinking this will be that strong, but just in case

not to my knowledege ... i cant say anything for sure at this point .. there is a lot of questions that need to be answered.
caue if that is not the center then i dunno we are looking a very sheared system somehow lol ...
i am actually slightly confused at this point and so are few other pro mets i know that baffled so. the morning will help with visible
so i would just wait..
