On the intellicast.com website I have Irma on radar and in motion and Irma appears now headed 360 or due north, which I think makes a track right over TV. That route takes it over land more quickly, although the everglades has a lot of water. Still over land and not open water could help slow it down somewhat as far as wind speed. If it could turn to a heading of 010 or 020 and pass just east of us, that would be the best scenario because the right side is the bad side. If it passed east we would be on the left side. It's probably going to drag along the Gulf coastline which means it would probably turn slightly northwest and then were on bad side again.

I found a Villager in Gilchrist has a weather station which is good for wind speed and direction. Currently about 12 kts with gusts to 20 and from the east to northeast.
