I - 95 through the Carolinas

Not a good idea until maybe Sunday, watch the weather. I-95 has been closed before.

Hurricane warnings are up from 7-mile bridge to Jacksonville

Hurricane watch is up from Jacksonville to Savannah.

130mph winds and a central pressure around 950 millibars which portends further development overnight.

The track now passes 25 miles East of the Cape early Friday morning (before dawn, of course. They always come in at night.)

Be Safe!!

There is a hurricane coming through, right now with about 200 mile variance on its track through the Carolinas. If it is 200 miles offshore, no problem. It it goes onshore, runs right up the I-95, it could be really messy. Roads could be closed after the hurricane comes through.

Watch the Weather Channel and be flexible with your trip plans.

Hurricane watches will be up tomorrow and by Thursday or Friday it could be real messy in North Carolina. Remember that tropical storm force winds extend well outside of the actual storm track.

If you are not used to pulling trailers, even a U-Haul can be a problem on 45 to 60 mph crosswinds.

Watch the storm warnings and be careful out there!

depends on what Matthew does!!!!

And there are a LOT of sections of 95 that are in REALLY poor condition.

Wish there was a good alternative but there really isn't.....unless you like scenic two lane roads.

I'll be going from FL to Charlotte next week. Will be taking 95 up just because of time but will be coming back on 85 and 75 through Atlanta because I'm stopping in Atlanta. Except for the piece right at metro Atlanta, I expect the trip back to be much smoother and less stressful.
