Southwest Quad worst in this case?

Is that right? I mean, I should know, but hey, I am not 100% sure. It makes sense. It's moving west, winds are on-shore on its SW side. So the SWQ is the nasty one in this case, yes yes?

that is the Left Front Quadrant though the IR imagery just before landfall showed the strongest convection was in the left rear and just south of the center though it was rotating towards the coast. Areas north of the center have very little active weather according to the imagery especially the NW quadrant.
