All will be getting the "Dirty side" since the storm will hit at a 90 degree angle instead of the usual glancing blow.Potential to be very mean.
The "Dirty Side" to me means the North East Quadrant of the storm which is always the strongest quadrant.
North of the eye gets onshore winds which of course brings higher ocean surge. On the south side, an approaching storm blows away from the coast.
I sold my 39 ft sailboat last month and left South Carolina Saturday morning. Sounds like good timing to me as I'm now in southern Illinois.
