Yes, that's a great question.

And let me shift sheen — screens here. I'm sorry. So, as the center moves inland, you can see that — let's get to it. The center moves inland, it'll sweep across the central portion of the state right here. And now we got red is hurricane warnings. Blue is tropical storm warnings.

So you can see this large area of tropical-storm-force winds impacting almost the entire state of Florida, and then moving off and impacting Georgia and coastal South Carolina. So, I mean, this is going to be a big event, not just for Florida, but also Georgia and South Carolina, in the coming days.
