It won't do jack to FL. Few lucky peeps will get some rain while we bake away on the west coast. Another record 98f today in Tampa.

SC here and people starting prepping on Friday. Gas station was pretty busy with people filling up their tanks; bank drivethru busy as well and then the supermarket.
Hotel parking lots were less than 1/2 full when I went to the beach this morning at 7am.
Weekenders probably cancelled their plans.

Yep just another day. A little breezy but it's been drier that it was last month.

This is getting interesting. The latest that I can see is it turning back into a hurricane overnight and skirting the coast of Florida from just north of Ft Lauderdale going up the coast, then open water moving NE into the Carolinas and then moving up the coast to new England.

Vacationing in Wrightsville Beach. Absolutely nothing happening here. Wonder if they will order people off the island at some point. Side note high tide was VERY high today.

There are 2 spins on radar...one well southeast of Miami and the other well due East. Can see on recon as well: https://www.tropicaltidbits.com/recon/ in some of the past tracks they’ve flown where wind shifts direction. My guess is LLC is SE and maybe mid level or just spin from that earlier burst is the one to the East. Not sure what effect, if any, this will have (but if it’s just Low level and Mid level then that displacement is just byproduct of wind shear)..

NHC says has about 24hrs to restrengthen slowly potentially then weaken due to interaction with/near FL and wind shear again. Pressure up a tad so it's not doing any restrengthening at the moment. NHC says that extra spin S of Freeport is indeed either Mid-level center or vorticity maximum, but also mentions about storms current center location then saying "Assuming that the aforementioned mid-level feature is not the dominant center of circulation,". Could we get a new center just to the NE? I guess we shall see...

Appreciate the posts guys. Keep us posted. Nothing big but at least something to talk about. Get a rain gauge set up. They aren't expensive. (The $3 ones work fine)
11pm update has landfall in SC and the center of Isaias over NJ Tuesday 8pm then through CT and New England
