At 5pm the eye is just going through the Key West area. You can
clearly see the rotation on the radar animation.

We're about 120 miles NNE. Heavy rain here with winds over 20, not
really a big deal but no day to be outside. The center of the storm
is expected to go well to the west out in the Gulf.
