1. This morning's Euro Model looks real bad for the East Coast

It makes landfall just south the Palm Beach.

Runs up the middle of the FL Peninsula.

Goes back out to sea near JAX - and hugs the coastline from GA- NC

Last day in the forecast puts it just south of NYC.

next Friday. I’m hoping the airlines will allow me to rebook for a future date. Recovery will be difficult enough without a lot of tourists in the way..
