I was thinking that as well.
The NHC might decide that its correct looking at the FL winds, lets see what their update brings.

NHC actually went with 115 kt SFMR for the update...

Likely won't be too much of an issue for the fast-moving Ida, but when it struggled to RI earlier in the day, some people pointed to the low OHC (despite high SSTs) as one possible cause.
How fast is she moving, its something I keep meaning to check on, but with prepping , and LITERALLY I slipped off a wet ladder today and got hit in the head by a 2x4... I keep forgetting to check!![]()
She's moving NW at 15mph per the 1 am CDT NHC update.
The NHC forecast has her slowing down as the center gets closer to you (not a good thing, I know).
I've had the radar on screen with the NHC forecast tracks and she just hit her forecast point for 06z almost dead on from the 5pm forecast yesterday.
If I were you, I'd focus on the NHC forecast and also look at your local NWS forecast discussions for more details on your area.
As a lifelong resident of South FL (until last year), I've been through the stress too many times to count. You're ahead of the game on preps and knowledge; get some rest before tomorrow.
