Trouble. the two major models, the european model, that's in blue. you can't see it because it's underneath the u.s. model. they are in total agreement right now, but watch what happens as we're into friday now at 1:30 in the morning and then no landfall. one of the things we've noticed that we should mention now, this doesn't mean this is going to happen, i want to show you what the european model is saying this may occur. we're going to possibly lose the dominant steering currents. i remember saying that same phrase with harvey in texas. this right now is at 6:00 a.m. friday morning. hasn't ...

Coast, still catastrophic because if it's over water, the engine continues to purr. we're going to continue to follow the national hurricane stats. we see the time stamps getting closer, which still brings it on shore, but until we get closer to our landfall, late tomorrow, we're not going to know definitely what the system may do and what those steering currents may be. so, the changes keep coming but there's no doubt this is a major hurricane that most likely this area of north carolina hasn't seen since hazel in 1954. >> yeah, and by the time you know exactly what's going to happen, it's no...
