Tropical Hurricane Dorian

Nevermind, it turns out I was wrong about Deloras.. but it ends up being a pretty cool name for this storm versus a generic name:

Dorian /ˈdɔːriən/ is a unisex given name of Greek origin. In Greek the meaning of the name Dorian is: Of Doris, a district of Greece; or of Doros, a legendary Greek hero. Doros was the son of Hellen of Sparta (who was the daughter of Zeus and Leda). Doros was the founder of the Dorian tribe, and the most likely origin of Doros' name was the Greek word "doron", meaning "gift". The Dorians were an obscure, ancient Hellenic tribe that were supposed to have existed in the north-eastern regions of Greece, ancient Macedonia and Epirus.
Another possible origin of the name Dorian, is from the Greek "Dorios", meaning 'child of the sea' .[1]
 
Dorian is definitely male lol if genders still exist in 2019 ?

Oh and the pressure is up 7 mb on that recon pass dry air really cutting into it atm
 
>30% chance of rapid intensification on Thursday on the models. We could be looking at something completely different tomorrow night.
 
Interesting run ICON tracks SW off the peninsula from hour 105 to 120. Then turns West and makes landfall North of Miami and as soon as it makers landfall it take an immediate sharp right turn moves NNW up the peninsula.
 
Is this run about to try for the rare GA landfall or be a just miss?

Edit: nah, North FL it is most likely. Still looks nasty.
