Another thing to keep in mind is these big storms like this with large eyes do not see their wind speeds slow down as fast due to land interaction and in fact the center's often tighten up a bit and sometimes even see pressure drop that help it hold its wind field even longer.....Irene was a good example of this....she actually got more organized as she crossed the coast into the Pamlico sound....

Yeah I think Dorian looks pretty good on IR and the visible satellite right now, to me it looks like he's moving NW but my winds are out of the north so I could just be mesmerized by a wobble.
 
12Z Euro very similar to the 6Z/east of 0Z. Definitely looking good as far as a major threat here in GA thank goodness thought that doesn't mean it won't be stormy.
 
So far Euro well east of it's 0z run still on a N heading though so probably still close to the coast
edit: looks to be turning @24, this one may staff offshore

It does stay offshore on 12Z Euro. Edit: or a close scrape in part of NC
