Re: Could She?

I've got a question. I'm assuming when forecasts are done, timing means a lot. Reading the discussions from yesterday there was the thinking that Ophelia could be stationary for a few days, then assume a north to eventually northeast track. At least that was one of the discussions I just went and looked at.

Ophelia now seems to be moving on a little faster and slightly more westward track then thought yesterday. Will this mean she won't feel the affect of the trough until inland now opposed to before hitting the coast? Looking on my coordinates she only has about 1 degree to go before being directly South of Myrtle Beach but still has a little over 2 degrees to go north. I'm thinking this may be another Wilmington or Cape Fear area hit. Just a weird storm that probably has about 2 surprises left.
