At the moment, Felix is aimed squarely at those of us in the south (I am between Dangriga and Placencia). But...
Felix is narrow (like Iris was) -- only 30 mile radius hurricane winds and about 100 mile radius TS -- so: devastating right where it lands and just a lot of wet and blow to each side.
And, from where it sits now (barring a Mitch) it will be scraping Honduras, meaning...
An inch further south and it'll fizzle out over Honduras (mudslides and loss of life there), an inch further north and it stays more over water and some place in southern Belize gets creamed, and another inch north of that and it wheels up to y'all there in the north and we southerners are getting off easy again...
Of course, this all presumes no unexpected change in the track between now and Wednesday morning.
Yeah, right.
