My trip to Key Largo this weekend is looking pretty shaky thanks to Wilma. I have planned this trip for months and wouldn't you know a *******in hurricane has to come and screw it up. I am getting my weather and predicted tracks from intellicast.com
Are there other sites that will give me more information? I am hoping for the best.

http://www.wunderground.com/tropical is where I ususally look, but it's all pretty much from the national hurricane center - http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/

Shouldn't this be a Whine & Cheese?

Try www.storm2k.org and www.flhurricane.com. Both are message boards with pro-mets and hobbyists posting their thoughts. Some of the people are rather "doomsday-ish" but many of them are very knowledgable.
