Re: Orlando status?

The television is showing little damage downtown. Just some trees down.
Here northwest of town, the gusts are really strong. Have no idea how fast, but like a poster said, the winds are gusting stronger than the other two but aren't as fast sustained as the worst of Charlie here. But I got the least amount of winds of anyone in the Orlando area with Charley.

The radar loops certainly look more NNW than anything. An hour ago, it looked like the center would pass south of Lakeland and nail Tampa. The center looks to be about due east of the southern part of lakeland, just north east of Bartow.
