Have. i know you dont like to focus on the center line. two of our hurricane specific models do actually take this towards and make landfall near the kennedy space center. is there any reason for that. are you guys looking at that. is that why you have the cone on the east coast? >> thats right. there are still a number of possibilities. the forecast track, east coast of florida and heres the storm, about 150 miles offshore from the east coast. very slow motion. as you said, we have a forecast n...

The real focus is on the evacuations weve got to remind people. hurricane charley, earl thought it was going to florida, people were surprised, but in a hurricane-warned area. so these warnings are the thing people should be focusing on, less than the cone of the track. if youre in those evacuation zones, that means the possible can occur. you cant down this storm may wobble, may come ashore, that would all be within the forecast possibilities. >> you mentioned one of the challenges, it always s...

One of the rain bands took us by surprise. had to come up here just before air. we can see drenched in water right now. we expect this to get much worse, deteriorating conditions for tomorrow, as hurricane dorian begins to scrape the florida coast. >> gabe gutierrez in stewart, florida, well be checking in with him a lot in the next couple of days. and that western eye wall will be closest to gabe and the stewart area as we go throughout tuesday. that will be the close st call. the forecast path...

Now asuka category 5. it is going to clear to the west and then we expect the turn to happen. by tuesday at 2:00 a.m. category 4 storm still very powerful. it will skirt the east coast but so painfully close. i know we focus on the track and landfall but even though its still off the coast we are going to have that battering storm surge. that is the biggest culprit for deaths when we talk about hurricanes. water is the second. this cone of concern still includes the eastern coast of florida so n...

Enforcement officials and people dealing, as we saw on saturday, law enforcement officials were targeted and shot at. perhaps hearing more from them could, in fact, move that conversation forward. before we go, ana, you are right there in florida, a proud floridian as well. youve been tweeting about dorian heading your way, with a good amount of humor which i love about you and expect from you. give us a sense how are people handling it especially if it continues to shift and now its just sittin...

An elite group of -- strongest desperately needed emergency supplies? >> we saw a rash yesterday when by winds, 180 miles per hour. the weather reports in the hurricane centers started showing those models and getting things they need and we will continue to see that. what do all these people have in common, limu? the same areas for 12 hours, i dont quite know how people can hopefully everybody has their preparations and plans, heed [ guttural grunt ] survive something like that with exactly. no...

I can put my finger right there when it started and there is the end of the six-hour loop. i mean, what the people in freeport and on grand bahama island have been through in the last 24 hours is what no one really in -- i cant think of anyone else on the planet thats been through anything like this. a category 5 hurricane stalling right over the top the of you. so there is hopes tonight. they dont have power. theyre going to be in the dark, but hopefully the winds will begin to come down a litt...

Were still going to see wind gusts along the florida coast and likely up the carolina coast if this eye wall does collapse. so far we are only the outer part of the cone of uncertainty on land. but this is what were going to see. for tomorrow, were going to see wind speeds 70 for stewart. 73 for melbourne. all the way up to daytona, likely 72 as well. and thats if we dont get the storm five miles closer to the u.s. that will double some of the numbers. please, were not going to do that. were goi...

Without power, we started losing weather observations from around freeport. its harrowing in the dark the night. power, no doubt, is out. theres one other hurricane with stronger winds, 1980. it didnt make landfall. since 1951, we have had 90 hurricanes. theres been one other at landfall with winds like dorian. that was the labor day hurricane of 1934. what we are seeing is unprecedented. its hard to see. theres clearing. they were in the eye. when the eye made its first landfall, they were able...

To melbourne. can you imagine that? also notice the turn eventually taking it east of jacksonville by the time we get into wednesday, 8:00 p.m. then it curves out to sea. the big question is when is that turn going to occur? it hasnt happened yet. think of a cruise ship. if the captain says all of a sudden, we got to turn this thing around, well, youre not going to be able to do that on the fly because that momentum will continue. so the steering currents are going to want to pull this up, but d...
