Yeah, I was really hoping this would stay off the coast, in Orlando too

Just curious and maybe its been discussed, but does the NHC have an alternate location or do they have a fortress at FIU?

I want to say I heard they would stay in their bunker room they have at the NHC, I could be wrong though.

AF309 just took off to go penetrate Irma

Could end up like Charley was for us here but covering a much bigger area.

This was discussed on the weather channel last night. They are confident their HQ can sustain a direct Cat 5 hit, and they also have a crew in DC that can take over if necessary.

Would Tampa be spared?

If that shifts anymore west that would be a disaster for Miami, as it is right now it still would be a disaster for them.
