Petunia  is definitely the witch that will show powers late in life. I
also think  that Petunia was definitely jealous of the attention Lily
received from her  parents--hence Harry now receiving nothing but
contempt from the Dursleys.  I don't see a moment of enlightenment for
Petunia either, but it would be  nice.

I have a bad feeling that the Dursley house is going to be  attacked
in July when Harry turns 17. The DE's will be prepared for  a
confrontation with Harry but not with Petunia. It sounds like  this
late bloomer, according to JKR, is suppose to show signs of  their
power during a moment of crises.


This Petunia as a witch who suppressed her powers theory is so  delicious.  I 
almost wonder if she went to Hogwarts herself at one point  and then decided 
to leave or was expelled.  It's always possible.   This is why I wish we knew 
more back story about Harry's family.  It's  frustrating to know so much about 
so many wizarding families, and so little  about our main character's 
background.  My fingers are crossed for Book  7.
