According to the latest MELB sat updates, it doesn't appear that you have any worse cells coming toward you. It's really more of same. IOW -- no "red cells" to you east or north at present.

The upper edge of the eyewall is going ashore at Ft. Pierce. The south edge is going ashore at WPB. There is a solid yellow on the radar essentially from Ft. Pierce to Daytona. The major news networks are showing video from Melbourne right now and saying sustained winds of 100 mph.

Looking at radar, things offshore don't look worse than the things that have already passed you, but they don't look better either.

I don't see you being in the eyewall, but it'll be bad enough.

Will you leave next time? :)
