Looks like you might want to be ready for 25/30 kt winds. This thing is on a straight course and doesn't look like it's veering off at all.

25 to 30 is nothing but good windsurfing weather.

Then you going to have lots of fun next week.

Oh man... this sucks. The kids have an outdoor play on friday night and their Xmas dance show saturday night at central park.

super minor it appears. winds 25-35 knots as far as navy shows it, thru the 14th at 6pm. just west of Georgetown.

I don't think you have much to worry about Amanda, It has now bounced North , and Once again Cozumel is now in it's direct Path. lets hope it weakens bofore it hits.

Headed even further north as of this morning.

Whew, we just don't need that much rain right now. We are waiting for the boat loads of tourists to decend and we want to show them a good time.

Yes it would be nice if it would just fizzle away.
