I don't get the back and forth with it having tropical storm force winds or hurricane force winds farther inland. The last update had hurricane forcewinds inland, and now it is back to tropical storm force. Everything I have seen today has said Flo is getting stronger, and could be a cat 4 or 5 at landfall. That to me says the hurricane force winds should be farther inland once it comes in. Very confusing.

the update just shows a spot measurement at certain amounts of time from the update time.  This isn't a prediction of how far inland it will stay hurricane. Take a look at the time labels between the updates.

Is DC/NoVA not a good place to evacute to?

From Western NC, I'd go Nashville.

From SC, I'd go FL.

From Coastal NC, DC would be an ok start, but could have more driving to do.

From my local forecast follows.  Is it true that the shaded area is only 2/3 confidence interval?  That was not my impression.
