Top sustained winds are near 70 miles an hour, with strengthening expected. <\/P><\/p>\n<p><P>But forecasters say interaction with some land and some shear might inhibit strengthening for the next couple of days. <\/P><\/p>\n<p><P>Florida and other East Coast states are worried about Jeanne&#8217;s eventual track.
