Hurricane Dorian battered St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands, and brushing Puerto Rico. Taking aim at the Florida Atlantic Coastline, Hurricane Dorian is projected to be a major hurricane (Category 3) at landfall.

Rush probably wouldn’t be back from his vacation until Monday evening anyway. Things may look different then.
“(FWIW: My experience suggests that the models to believe are the ones 3 days out from landfall... which would be about this time tomorrow)”.
Down here in Puerto Rico the models for Dorian erred by 175 miles, 3 different scenarios in the last 24 hours. Of course, it was still organizing and PR is a much smaller target than Florida.
Storm2K is a good one, too:

Saturday (9/7) 00001 hours has the eye right over where I live. Of course that's just a model
Where are you? I have family in West Palm Beach.
My wife’s family lives in Jax. We just cam back from visiting them a few weeks ago. Stayed at North Beach campground in St. Augustine. It was awesome.
They are probably 12 miles inland from Neptune beach. They normally stay put. Time will tell this time.
Yes, I saw it.
But aren’t you glad you had a generator.
Hang in there. The current track is south of you. Even a few miles from landfall on these storms can make a big difference.
Latest models are all over the place. The one thing they agree on is a very strong storm.

I think everybody’s hurricane data comes from NOAA’s National Hurricane Center.

That would be terrible if it verifies, Alan....
Buzz saw up the FL peninsula would be frightful.
Yeah - Sure hope it doesn’t.
And just imagine if Andrew had been 20 miles to the north of where it hit, it would have nailed downtown Miami.
If that holds looks like New Orleans is in the clear. Some good news there, anyway...
