It's still very very early, but latest tracks have it downgrading back to a depression by Friday morning...
Sure looks like to me it would Monday before it even gets there

It's still pretty early, but based on the current projections, I will be surprised if they stick to the 8/31 plan. Maybe push it a day until Sun 9/1 after its passed over? Or 9/2, but that's Labor Day so im not sure employees will be willing to work...
I'm local so whatever happens, I'll be there, but would be terrible for the many of you coming in from out of town who can't change their plans...
It's always something...

Miami's now in the "cone of death" for Saturday, August 31.
The 5pm update predicts that as of 2pm on Saturday, Dorian will be a tropical storm with sustained winds of 70mph (a hurricane begins at 75mph) and gusts up to 85mph. The center of Dorian will be about 120 miles due East of downtown Miami, but the outer edge of the storm will already cover Miami.
If the storm takes a southern track in the cone, it will be a weaker storm, because it has to pass through a bit of wind shear and it won't have as much time over the warm Caribbean waters. Unfortunately, today's spaghetti models hint that it may head a bit farther north on the Florida coast. That could be the difference between a nasty tropical storm and a hurricane. I am concerned for our friends in Boca and West Palm.

It doesn't look good for Saturday right now, but again there is a lot that can and will change between now and then, for better or worse. By the time everyone wakes up on the east coast on Thursday morning we will have a much better idea what is happening with the storm. I feel badly for those planning on flying in as the exit strategy may become a bit difficult. But again, should have a much better idea on Thursday morning what the storm is doing.
It is an interesting side note about building the stage with the storm coming. Perhaps they will assemble as much as possible without putting it "up" for lack of a better word until they see what is happening.
I truly hope tonight's show is not the last on this leg of the tour. Gotta believe they will still play Miami even if a few days late.

Good News / Bad News
This evening's spaghetti model runs are hinting a track even farther north (north of WPB ). I think that may be reflected in the 11pm forecast track.
The problem is that a northern track probably means it will be a hurricane at landfall. Also, we'll probably still get a glancing "blow" in Miami.
Damn, Dorian. Buy yourself a ticket!

Hopefully no later than Monday. And hopefully they make the decision by Thursday early.
If they can postpone and it sure looks like they will have to then they need to do it ASAP so people can regroup.
