Do you have a clue where it will exit Florida??

It is now projected to go through Orlando and Exit at Daytona Beach.

They just shifted the path over Orlando slightly west, right over Seminole County where I live.

the eye of hurricane Gloria passed right over us, we went down to the beach, the surf was amazing, clear sky, sunshine, for that period of time when the eye was over us.

He'll have more energy to reform and become even more dangerous to the Carolinas and points north.

I think you're could be right. But, speaking for Virginia, we'd just as soon it head on to the east of us...

The eye of a hurricane is creepy. It's absolutely amazing.

Yes, it's very surreal. I experienced the eye of Alicia and I will never forget it.
