Default Hurricane Wilma seems to be imminent...

Tropical Depression 24, currently stationary in the mid Caribbean, is
forecast to reach Tropical Storm status within 24 hours and will thus
(I think!) be named Wilma, This will be the 21st name used in the 2005
Atlantic hurricane season and is the last one in the names list. The
Greek alphabet will have to be used thereafter for any further "named"
Atlantic storms this year. If it develops as expected, Wilma will
become a hurricane within three days and will head into the Gulf of
Mexico. The GFDL model develops it into a Major Hurricane within three
days


TS Wilma as from the latest advisory.
