Absolutely, my friend. :)
But the "it's probably gonna miss" crowd, and I mean those with credentials to say that, needs to give hope to those who are being terrified by the manic media. There are very god signs that this will likely miss most or all of the coast. So people who are hunkered down can stay in place until the all clear but have a little more hope that their home will be there when they go back.

To my nonprofessional eye, it appears as though the outer eye wall has not taken over as the dominant circulation. The inner eye has maintained a solid structure and has no warmed with a solid burst of colder cloud tops surrounding it. In fact, the northeastern quadrant (the part most likely to impact Florida) of the outer eye wall is looking absolutely fierce on radar.

They're part of the same system feeding off the energy. At times the circulations are distinct, but they're spinning and shooting out feeder bands. It particularly looks like the western side of the inner core may be almost the most intense at the moment. Luckily it looks far enough away from land to rotate some of that energy in, around and out before landfall.

Hey Frank. Great to see you posting man. I'm glad it's not us this time, but I've enjoyed tracking this storm with you as we've been doing probably since the late 90's. Was great to see CFHC busting on that b.s. news clip earlier too.
I'm kind of scared for next year, but we'll see what happens. We still have the rest of this season to go. As always, you're posts are concise and on point. Matthew is greatness (acknowledging the tragedies) as far as hurricanes go. It's quite a storm for the history books for various reasons. I think the entire east coast of Florida, Georgia and maybe especially South Carolina are going to really bite it. Maybe the on-shore effects aren't Cat-4, but if there are Cat 1 or 2 feeder bands out front in the inner core, it's going to be a path of destruction. MSNBC was hyping how to get a 200 billion storm, but I'm thinking more $10-20 which was what I posted last night. Unless something crazy happens, this is going to be bad news for lots of people. Jacksonville has been the bullseye for action this year, and they, particularly maybe Jax Beach, looks for a coup de grace from 2016. We've been there baby. haha
