This cool, dry air will spill off the coast of Florida ahead of Noel, probably killing off convection on the western side of the storm as it approaches (not that there's much convection west of the center now). So you'll probably be facing a "half storm" with gusty winds on the west primarily due to the pressure gradient west of the front in combination with the low pressure of Noel to the east.

Wobbles are common...In a few hours,we'll be in the middle of "Wobble Watch" mode..

Sorry about that, but cool, dry air flowing out into the Atlantic east of Florida does not = lots of rain for Florida. To get much rain in Florida, Noel would have to shoot the FL straits and move up the west coast, and that's not likely at all given the mid to upper-level wind flow across the Gulf and Florida.

No its not. The NHC track is: "THE OFFICIAL FORECAST TRACK IS DOWN THE MIDDLE OF THE
GUIDANCE...WHICH IS A WESTWARD SHIFT FROM THE PREVIOUS ADVISORY."

I'd say with the center reformation today (further west) and the rather rapid rate of movement that it's becoming increasingly likely for a S FL or keys landfall, with a possible stall immediately inland, at the coast, or just offshore until the trough picks it up in 72 hrs. 00Z global models will have the updated position and speed so tomorrow morning might be an exciting day. I still don't expect this to be more than a moderate-to-strong tropical storm with an outside chance at a minimal hurricane.

Yeah, I noticed that. Fall is coming to Florida(It's been here for 5 days and it's GREAT, we're headed into the 30's tonight)! I don't really think this will be a big deal at all.
