They should shift it towards south flordia once again because with a storm this big and moving this fast, this system is not going to make that hard right turn like they thinking unless it slowes back down under 10 mph.

If it is shifted, I highly doubt it'll be towards the GA or Carolinas coast. This looks like a Florida storm.

48 hours ago I was saying SC actually, but now, its very likely to be a south/central FLorida run through.

My original thoughts were the Miami, Flordia area. I've been nice and gone to Central Flordia, but that is as high up as I would go. I'd still say Southern Flordia over the Carolina's.

I still haven't ruled out Carolinas yet. However, I am feeling a leaning southward. At least with a feel toward Carolinas there was a chance of weakening or turning out to sea.

Since the average error of actual landfall, this far out, is over 200 miles anyone that believes it will hit a specific area is either :grr: a hell of a forecaster, or has been to Casadaga recently. All costal residents from the Keys to the Carolinas should start advanced preperations :grr:[list=][/list]

I took a wild stab a couple of days ago and said Space Coast (Melbourne, Merritt Island, Cocoa Beach). Still looking good...ummm, bad I mean.

Cassadaga? I can't believe you've heard of that town. That place gives me the creeps!

I voted S. FL, but I think it will pass just south of the entire state, missing us all. No scientific reasoning, just a hunch.

My wife went to Cassadaga a few weeks ago and heard of a great storm to pass to the North of Florida in the weeks to come. Could it be Frances fortold? Only the mystics know :D
