225 MPH winds measured about 500 feet above surface Seriously? That is the wind speed of an EF5 tornado.
Wow. I have no words.

Also consider back routes. The interstates and the Turnpike will be bumper to bumper.This is excellent advice, and local news was encouraging use of E-W routes toward inland peninsula, where there are multiple routes North.

Very scary for those in the potential path. Surely, it is the perfect storm.

Barbuda is in the worst NE quadrant. However it is no picnic on the other islands.

Considering pictures of what I’ve seen the average person living in on many of those islands, just about everything is going to be erased.

The way I read that was the eye stays offshore but the stronger winds and surge buzz-saw their way from Biscayne Bay through Miami and halfway up the coast before pulling off-shore somewhat and then slamming in between Augusta, Ga and Hilton Head.
Basically some models now show east flank and some show busting Cuba and Key West and going into the gulf with north gulf coast Florida or panhandle getting the eventual landfall.
Much less consensus than we had 48 hours ago.

I think the BAM variants are rather basic trajectory models; we may be seeing less of them because NOAA recently started using new supercomputers which allow more complex modeling.

Wow. The rain front on that cold front extends from Maine to Texas. Looks like a collision of titans is coming. It has finally lowered our humidity in West Texas.
