A thirty-mile shift to the east and there will be no US landfall, either in Florida or the Outer Banks.

And 30 miles to the west and my family will be pummeled in Wilmington!

The trend is your friend. The forecast and actual tracks have continually shifted eastward. And from what I can see of the sat images (it's almost impossible to find a center right now over Cuba), it has continued to move more NNW than NW. Good news - small shifts now can mean large track varations later.

Ummm, I moved to North Carolina to avoid hurricane season ;)

I should be in good shape here in western NC just as long as it doesn't shift tracks again. I heard we can flood here a bit in Buncombe with rainmakers.
