Fellow Jacksonville Florida metro poster, what's your gut feeling about our immediate area effects or impacts concerning Dorian???

My main worry is storm surge of course in the Saint Johns River. This is a
HUGE concern. Look what happened with Irma in 2017. This could be potentially catastrophic with a potential Cat 3 or higher hurricane impacting our area with Dorian. We will definitely see tropical storm force winds and possibly hurricane force winds , depending upon how close the inner core of Dorian gets to Jax metro area. Flooding rains also possible, especially Sunday into Monday as it stands right now. Don't forget about tornadoes as well, always a big problem with landfalling hurricanes. Things can and will change. Stay abreasted!!

NEVER, EVER SAY NEVER in the tropics and weather in general, and most importantly, with life itself!!
