Good morning, CFHurricane family.

Any mets wish to weigh in on Ophelia's likely track and intensity this am? Beaufort County, SC emergency management is meeting at 9:00 am to make a decision on evacuation. NHC path, I see, is moved north, with the GFDL being a southern outlier. Any thoughts as to how much weight I should put on that model, which seems to be more current, in making my own decision?

All thoughts gratefully accepted. Last night, I was strongly leaning toward leaving today (I have elderly inlaws, dogs, etc), but today am leaning toward "hold", since landfall seems to have been pushed back some.

Thanks!
