Latest forecast I saw was for it to hit Florida as a Cat 4 on Monday around Vero Beach. It won’t reach Orlando until Tuesday and by then it will be a Cat 1. Then, it is supposed to go north along the 75/Turnpike corridor still as a Cat 1. This is projected to be a very slow moving hurricane which certainly is not good for anybody in its path. It could dump huge amounts of rain along with 80 mph winds for many hours here in TV if this holds true. I have been through a couple like this up in NC and they cause a lot of damage and flooding when they move this slow. All of this could change tomorrow or over the weekend, stay vigilant and be prepared.
