Matthew

I can't get the NCH page/image from the 5pm update to reload to share here. The update looks similar to Matthew, only closer to the coast.

Also, I don't know if any of you read the "discussion" part of the page where they describe in as much detail as possible why they make the decisions they make for the tracking, but I find it fascinating how all the 'moving parts' have to move together in order for a storm to strengthen or weaken, the direction it heads, the speed at which it travels, etc. Quite interesting. In this case, in a terrifying way for anyone who is in the storm's path. This would be the 5pm update discussion.

NO kidding ... taking the Gulf Stream directly into GA, SC, and NC.

The worst part is the fact that after it passes through Florida, everyone thinks its over.  Meanwhile GA, SC, and NC were getting flooded and the national media was tuning out by that time.  Not that it makes a difference in the grand scheme of things but they should get more media exposure for what it's worth.
