Matthew: Batoning down the Hatches

If Matthew stays at its current strength, you may want to consider evacuating entirely. Hurricanes are no joke.

Out of curiosity, where exactly do you live on the East Coast? That might allow me to determine if you should evacuate or not. I was a huge weather nerd a couple of years ago, so I know some things in regards to hurricane movement.
 
If it's predicted to make landfall I will probably be out that way mid- to late-week. PM me and I will give you my contact info if interested.

DMAT?

Skywarn & CERT.
 
It appears that we've got mass evacuations now, as well as a hurricane warning from the NWS that bears a similar tone to the warnings issued for Hurricane Katrina back in 2005.

The satellite presentation of Matthew has improved markedly
overnight with eye reappearing and warming within the past couple
of hours. The eye is also embedded within a very symmetric
central dense overcast with cloud tops colder than -70C. An Air
Force Reconnaissance Hurricane Hunter that just flew through the
center reported peak 700 mb flight-level winds of 132 kt, SFMR
winds around 103 kt, and a pressure of 944 mb, which is
down about 18 mb from last evening.

Sounds like strengthening.

Eye visible on radar off the coast of Florida now.

I've been monitoring it on our GRLevel radar software since I had to cancel my trip down there. Software isn't really designed for hurricanes and wind speeds max at at 70mph. Needless to say, most of that storm is off the chart.
