It's a small eye and wind field but just look at what happened in Baracoa, Cuba when it was a tad weaker...

Some experts are saying it's in an eyewall replacement cycle which would weaken the wind but expand the wind field significantly.

The worst part of it is the increase in surge which is already predicted to be historic for NE Florida.

Default Greetings from Jacksonville......

Hope everyone will be ok. I don't live near the beaches or coast thank goodness those people should probably evacuate. If this thing comes thru between 8-10 pm, power goes out or it doesn't i plan on sleeping right thru it. Again, hope everyone will be ok and make it through this event.

Be safe.

Yeah, some donks are still at the Beaches and even bringing kids! The Mayor even went down to the area to try to tell people to evacuate. I am in a 2nd floor apartment and not near the beach or coast so unless Noah and the Ark show up, i think we're fine.

There was an idiot windsurfing in Miami.

I'm sure there will be plenty of footage worthy of Darwin awards.
