Re: Tropical Depression 16/Ophelia Situation/Condition Reports

NL, no, it won't. Projected landfall is near Jacksonville but straddling the coast the entire way; we'll have to see if that plays out or if future track changes are warranted. Haven't had the chance to look myself, though. Many other storms have hit that area in the past, but it is rare to see something major that way...based off of climatology, they are probably overdue. (That is in no way saying that this will do that, by the way.)
