Very, very, very different storms, but to answer your question about the ability to intensify between Cuba and SW Florida -- Charley exited Cuba at 110 and hit Punta Gorda at 150.
Yes, storms can intensify very rapidly in a short amount of time, especially in the warm, shallow waters of the GOM.
Not saying that can or will happen with Fay.
All hurricanes are unpredictable, this one seems above average due to it's current inability to get organized.
