Llulu - I see you reading.
THIS is one I think YOU should consider keeping tabs on until we know what it's going to do... Moving W now, but supposed to make a turn to the WNW or NW, then N. How soon it does that wiil have a lot to do witih where it hits. (If anywhere.)
The Outer Banks would be ONE of the possibiities, depending on when and where and to what extent it turns. JUST MY OPINION - NOTHING MORE. I am not a meteorologist, nor do I plaly one on TV.
The models are good for preparations if coming your way.
Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me! I want people to know why I look this way. I've traveled a long way, and some of the roads weren't paved.
Most people walk into and out of your life . . . but FRIENDS leave footprints in your heart
