Go to NOAA.gov and look for Satellites. Then click on them and you will see what he's talking about. He's got a pretty good track record. He doesn't really try to hype things up; he pretty much tells it like he sees it.
And yes, he was the one who predicted the right hand turn that Charley took. He didn't see it as a wobble, and he was correct.
He can be a little cocky sometimes, but that doesn't mean he doesn't know what he' s talking about. Personally, I prefer a local met who is willing to tell it like it is, not to stick solely to the discussions.
Heck, I could do that!
