The state\u2019s east coast from Fort Lauderdale up to Cape Canaveral and inland to Orlando are still within the three-day cone of uncertainty, though. The five-day projection includes even more of the state, but the consensus path now has the storm headed for landfall near the South Carolina and Georgia border.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Florida Gov. DeSantis, though, cautioned that the storm paths will continue to change and that Florida residents need to be wary.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u201cThere is still significant chance of a strike on the state of Florida,\u201d DeSantis said during a briefing at the Emergency Operations Center this morning. \u201cAnyone inside of that cone needs to be prepared.\u201d<\/p>\n

As of Saturday 11:00 PM Saturday the forecast is for Dorian to track North with its center staying over the Atlantic as it passes Florida. Good news for us.<\/p>\n

As of 11:00 PM Sunday<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

Monday AM.
Dorian continues on a path that would put its center off the Eastern coast of Florida. At this time is does not appear to be a threat to central and western Florida. Current projection is for the storm center to be well north of us by Wednesday night and Thursday morning.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

And the forecast is for the storm to remain off the coast as of late Monday.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

Well goodby Dorian, at least as far as we are concerned!<\/p>\n
