Good thing about Matthew is that while it is a Cat 4, those winds are concentrated around the core, not the case with Sandy so I don't see the damage being as extensive with Matthew.
Storm surge is often an over looked aspect of hurricanes, even if you're spared the worst winds you may still have to deal with feet of water, I hope people are prepared.
I take that back, looking at the current projected path, if this thing heads inland it could possibly give Katrina and Sandy a run for their money. I hope it doesn't, many people will have evacuated only to still end up in the storm's path.
Euro Wind Gust projections....... You can see the closer you are to the coast and in those counties, the worse it will be. Drive 1-2 hours west and you will miss the brunt of it.
Storm this strong is going to push that Atlantic Ocean right into the coast. Not good. Almost as if Georgia/South Carolina coast will take the biggest hit with the surge the way it's coming in.
