Oh man, this is going to be something Phil may want to not look at. I believe the shortwave will lift it up at the worst possible timing... or miss it entirely? Hitting Cuba at 132.

I'm not liking this either...I have family that just moved down to Florida and have a BRAND NEW house that was just built. It's hurricane proofed but still.

Have family in 2 parts, and neither need it. Cuba seems to weaken it a bit, and may just cause a wild solution .
its still moving W or maybe WNWWWWW lol ridge finally opening up a bit at 144
Based on the 500mb pattern, this thing will now just drift, nothing to push it anywhere fast while stuck between the ridges.

Hate to tell you, but there is no such thing.
It may meet or exceed codes, but nothing is "hurricane proof".
