    The westward shifting of the predicted track has us nervous. We planned to depart Baltimore for FL via the ICW in the morning, but now thinking about delaying a week.

    Not good at all. The Florida Governor issued the state of emergency for all Florida counties as of 5PM Monday. What's most distressing is the drastic shift westward in Matthew's predicted track by Thursday. The GFS and European models are both coming into agreement. The entire southeast coast is at risk. Let's hope for the best. Prepare for the worst.

    The worst part of the storm is on the east side so even 100nm off the coast will be a non event.

    That said I don't trust late season storms... They are unpredictable. Not loosing sleep yet even though I have 4 boats totaling 200'+ of loa to take care off

    Waiting for the next two advisories before I push the panic button

    An old Florida cracker theory of mine is that the safest place is in the center of the cone @ 5 days, storms never seem to end up there. I have a bad feeling about this one.

    And every update keeps moving the track further west. I think it's fair to say that Mathew will hit hard somewhere along the east coast. Question is does it move up the coast or head inland and come apart?
