Models shifted more north in the past few hours. They're now sending it smack over Coz, then NOGAPS take it north, while the others curve back to roughly Alex's track.

Now on top of Cozumel with port closed. I'll post the self updating maps here since no one else is discussing it here...
Even Lubbock TX incurred flooding from Alex and the remnants are still raining here some. My daughter's sis-in-law ruined her SUV engine Saturday night, but after last week's 1,000 mile trip with her's as one of the two vehicles - having seen her driving, I'm glad she and her kids didn't float off into a playa lake. Flooding is the most deadly factor of any of these storms.
All of the models take this one over the western Gulf torward Texas or Mexico, but Master's is thinking more northerly, with intensity building this week.

Dangerous? No way! I should have canceled once with a Cat-5 hurricane headed that way (I was too eager, betting it would serve even tho all the models said otherwise), and I did leave after a few days - but this is totally different, gone actually if your "there" is Cozumel...?
Look at the self updating maps in the last post and see that it has moved onto the peninsula, more or less where Chichen Itza is, away from Coz and moving away still, as well as losing power over land.
There may be some lingering thunderstorms, but no biggie - I'd go! Here is the Coz forecast for the week. Cozumel, Mexico Forecast : Weather Underground
Go and have a great trip...!

Its gone from Coz, and there's nothing spinning up in the neighborhood, so you should have nice weather.
And, as far as I96 goes, it might disrupt the BP oil collection efforts a little bit, but its traveling over the cold water that Alex chewed up and its unlikely to even hit tropical depression status.
