Early indications show that Tropical Storm Chantal will go up the east coast, Emergency Management Director David Adams told county commissioners Monday morning.

But Adam cautioned that it is still early to know the track of the storm, and residents should be watching for forecast changes.

“It’s so early, you never know what to expect,” he said.

The current forecast show the storm hitting the east end of Cuba on Thursday morning, then skirting around the east coast of Florida on Saturday.
