ALF Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 It seems like the European model forecast was more accurate long range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if it's going to hit somewhere, I'd rather it stay down there that would be like me saying if it's going to hit somewhere, I'd rater it be north of me in ga or the carolinas. rather selfish of me to think like that. I really mean no offense but that's the take I get from you. I understand though, nobody wants it to hit their home so it becomes easy to be more selfish as to where you would like to see it land. it's going to hit somewhere, lets just hope no lives are lost as we know there will be immense damage somewhere along the east coast by mid week. wishing you well up there, where ever you are.

I have good friends in Rockledge/Melbourne who are waiting it out. We're anxiously awaiting that turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your friends are really close to the left edge of the current forecast. They don't want to take a west coast trip across the state? Plenty of hotel rooms over this way.

They're waiting to see what the 5 p.m. update shows. But by then I think they'll have a lot of competition getting out of town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just hope that beast stays in the water for the most part. We already got hit here pretty good last year around this same time and some are still recovering.
