Sign of eyewall replacement cycle, outer eyewall should choke off the inner eye wall, then it'll shrink down towards the eye and take over as the main eyewall around the eye/center. Takes many hours, common in strong hurricanes, its basically replacing its batteries after that Cuba interaction / reorganizing. Don't be fooled by dropping winds (120mph) because the pressure continues to drop so as soon as finishes eyewall replacement cycle, maybe overnight tonight, it'll have the chance to re-strengthen.

Thanks for the ground report! Stay safe. Good luck.
Joe Cioffi video. 41 minutes long. . Gees. Lots of info though on Irma.
Official power outages as of 7pEST Saturday 9 September 2017 (source: power company) (some of these will be storm related, others will be every day variety mixed in): Note: crews will go and attempt to restore power until winds reach a certain limit, then you wait. The "area" comment after the county listing is just to give people an idea where each county is since most people know city locations better and does not mean those specific cities are without power, just somewhere in that county). (Up)(down) comments signify number of outages went up/down from 1hr ago.

Got to respect the professionalism and sense of community responsibility of the linemen out working to keep people's power on at times like this...
Hope they keep.safe
Soo, some meteorologists are now saying "IF the hurricane hits Florida".... are we thinking it may not hit Florida at all?
I've been wondering the same thing! I haven't heard any of the meteorologists say that, but one on the Weather Channel kept saying how they couldn't believe it hadn't started to turn North.

Ones on tv? What channel/who
Local to Florida
Or on Internet blogs
I think Levi Cowen in his AM blog said it would turn after clearing Cuba but part is still scraping around I think
