I see a "hurricane dock party" for Sunday here in Jacksonville
I just changed insurance Co. effective yesterday! I wasn't happy with the previous carriers named storm coverage. Hopefully none of us will have to test the quality of our coverage.
Margin of error at 5 days is 300 NM or more..
from the 5am NHC package: "THERE IS CONSIDERABLE
UNCERTAINTY AS TO WHERE EMILY WILL BE AND HOW STRONG IT WILL BE IN
3 TO 5 DAYS."
not loosing sleep over this one, at least for another 2 days.
Vero Beach seems to be a hurricane magnet since Ive been here we've had direct hits from David,Erin, Irene,Frances,Jeene,and Wilma. I dont take any chances any more. 8AM track shows it as a TS running up the coast.
Still too early to tell where she'll go and at what intensity. Definitely not too early to make some preliminary preparations. I just called the guys who look after mine when I'm not there to make sure they can take care of her if things get serious. I'd rather be ready and end up with no storm than say "didn't think she would turn this way and pick up strength." I'm not as seasoned at this as you Fl guys but we do prepare for some nasty storms up here too. A Nor'easter can really pack a punch.
from the 11am NHC advisory:
A DEEP MID-LEVEL TROUGH IS FORECAST TO
DEVELOP OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC AS THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE SHIFTS
EASTWARD. THIS PATTERN SHOULD FORCE EMILY ON A MORE WEST-NORTHWEST
TO NORTHWESTERLY TRACK OVER THE NEXT 3 DAYS WITH A TURN TO THE
NORTH THEREAFTER. MOST OF THE TRACK GUIDANCE AGREES WITH THIS
GENERAL SCENARIO. THE OFFICIAL FORECAST IS VERY SIMILAR TO THE
PREVIOUS ONE AND CLOSE TO THE MODEL CONSENSUS.
good chances it will recurve
Looks like its going right over Walkers Cay
