Just an FYI, this could effect a lot more than people are expecting. Time will tel where actual land fall and the subsequent path will be. However... This run could also result in very high inland wind/gusts into ga, sc and the mountains. It would appear winds will be enhanced by the fact of wedging/high over the northeast. Euro was showing 10 meter winds gusting as high as 75 to 90mph over all of ga/sc and this run of the gfs would likely be even worse since the track remains closer to the coast (less weakening vs an inland track) yet the low ends up near atlanta by 105. So widespread power outages are likely well inland...including atlanta. Such a track would also make for significantly higher storm surge along the ga/lower sc coast. A 18z gfs track is about as bad as it gets.

I’ve got a lot of neighbors evacuating to Georgia. Big mistake, IMO. We’re headed to Alabama in the AM and will be out of the cone.
