One model now predicts Hurricane Matthew could hit Florida coming and going


One satellite model making the rounds in the weather community shows Hurricane Matthew hitting Florida this week, and then looping back around to smash us again next week.

Meteorologist Curt Kaplan tweeted this video of how it would look:
