I’ve seen this kind of storm before. Its the only tropical storm that works 9-5.

Probably the best chance this year to observe mammatus clouds.
What? It’s real. Look it up pervert.
Mammatus Clouds – Rounded, smooth, sack-like protrusions hanging from the underside of a cloud (usually a thunderstorm anvil). Mammatus clouds often accompany severe thunderstorms, but do not produce severe weather; they may accompany non-severe storms as well.

Just spoke to my Aunt and Uncle who have lived (beautifully) on SPI for the better part of 15 years – they are packing and preparing… they have quite a routine.
PS: anyone interested in buying a gorgeous home on the beach? I mean after the hurricane passes…they need to move back here to be closer to family.
