-- original 2:25p posting --
As of 2:08pm, there has been a burst of lightning ( +'s ) around the eye which is usually a sign of intensification. This occurred as I was writing this forecast.
caveat that things could shift 20 miles or so either direction. Panama City appears to be especially at risk with gusts to 140 mph or perhaps slightly higher; with the possibility of gusts near 100 mph inland as far as Tallahassee. Gusts of 80 mph may occur in SW Georgia with power failures likely through the area.
Life threatening storm surges will accompany Michael. On top of 20' waves there will be a storm surge that will top 13' in places.
There will also be tornadoes as the tornado approaches land and to the right of the center as it moves inland. Flooding rains are also likely.
Please rush your preparation to completion.
