    [MENTION=266]Hawk[/MENTION], are you evacuating? If this is gonna be a Cat 3 like Euro projecting, I'm going to Atlanta. I stomached Matthew last year, but it was not fun seeing those 80 feet tall pine trees next to my house swaying back and forth back and forth.

    I don't miss these.

    Of course, I haven't seen the sky for a week due to wildfires, so ...

    I live in Boston now. Moved from Charleston right before Matthew last year, ironically enough. Just got off the phone with my Dad and they are likely staying for a Cat. 3 and below. Anything more and they will evacuate. They rode out Hugo, and live on high ground, but, sadly, the real concern is looters.

    NHC seems to be buying into the shift east with their latest track.

    Modeling trends suggest landfall somewhere between Savannah and Charleston. Some question of intensity.

    A lot could change within the next two days though.

    Hurricane Irma poses the most significant threat to Florida in memory — and "this is the kind of storm that you read about in the history books," said Bryan Norcross, senior hurricane specialist at The Weather Channel.

    "This has the possibility of running up the peninsula and affecting every major city in the state. It's not certain that that's what's going to happen, but it certainly is a possibility," Norcross said Wednesday.

    "We don't know what is going to happen exactly. But we know what the range of possibilities is — and this is a situation where the top of that range is extraordinarily extreme," he said. "This is the kind of storm that I always pictured when I read the history books about the great Florida hurricanes of the past and imagined how they would impact the modern state."


    We have grown accustomed to the Weather Channel dramatizing these things, but I can't recall such strong language ever being used before now.

    Latest Euro model is frightening. 90MPH+ gusts as far as Atlanta. Drives right up 75.

    I've seen a pretty wide range, but the thought of winds like that being in western Georgia is wild.

    And fill up with gas now, even if you haven't decided to leave yet. Some people in Florida are stuck because they don't have the gas to get out.

    From a Gulf Coast native and resident, if you know anyone in harms way, encourage them greatly to get out. If any of you are in harms way, get out! Very concerned for what this will do to south Florida

    Feel free to come up where I am. It looks as of now Savannah has dodged a bullet somewhat.

    The latest NHC and Euro models have been great for Charleston and Savannah.

    Absolute nightmare for Florida though. Looks like Atlanta is going to get impacted with a tropical storm.

    This is the latest American GFS model. I'm not staying up again tonight to see what the Euro has to say, but I wonder if it'll tick east.
