Re: Not good not good
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.

Re: Not good not good
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.

Re: Not good not good
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 buttonPascal

Re: Not good not good
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.
