I have the time available, and I felt a little bit of an impulse to head out and chase this one, but decided against it. Not an ideal storm to chase IMO. If the NHC track holds true, you'd get the western eyewall (and a shot at an inside-the-eye experience if a slight westerly shift happens), but either way, the stronger side of the storm will remain offshore. A shift of the track to the west will take the storm farther inland, in which case it could weaken substantially. An eastern track shift could easily take it too far offshore to get the eyewall. As strong of a storm Matthew is likely to be, I'd prefer a more right-angle approach to ensure a landfall at peak intensity and a better chance of adjusting my intercept location successfully.
