Let's assume for the sake of this discussion that Jeanne holds to the 11:00 a.m. forecast track -- landfall around south-central Florida and it rides up the coastline....
What would this ride of a few hundred miles partially over land do to the intensity of the storm? I would expect at least a little less intensity, but is it unreasonable to expect a significant decrease by the time it reaches the Florida/Georiga border?
Thanks for all thoughts/opinions on this hypothetical scenario.

NHC TPC calls for 65knots (Cat 1 minimal) with gusts to 80knots (93mph) when it is at the FL/GA border.
We will be on the north side of the storm for quite some time.
Winds will start saturday morning (20-25mph) and increase through till monday afternoon.
It will be simliar to another Frances for us, except this time with 70-80mph winds instead of 40-50mph.
Expect lots of trees down with the soaked grounds we have.
