Here's some good info from Southwest Florida:

Projected Path for Charley

and this one is excellent:

Radar Loop of Southwest Florida

The eye still looks to be going N with a wobble here or there to the E. No steady movement to NE. Yet.

Scroll back to page 12, who called Ft. Myers first? Of course, I deduced that just by looking at a radar loop. Dr. Lyons. Heh

I know the BIG focus is Charley, but once again look East of the Lesser Antillies!

Another good weather site to download is Weatherbug. They have live cameras all over Florida. Some really good ones in Key West, Naples and Fort Meyers. They also have good weather alerts that will "chirp" to let you know any new warnings that happen.

Weather forecasters in Orlando are not creating their own track, they are thinking this is gonna come further east.. They believe this will be veriified by NHC soon..

Bastardi has chimed in with his 3rd post of the day and should prove interesting for all you south of Tampa and east of there.

He notes the pressure falling (latest recon has it at 964mb) and that the frictional effects should begin to pull it more toward the coast (with landfall POSSIBLY even south of Venice). The explanation is that a storm moving toward a coastline from the western side will weaken the front side of the storm (NE) leaving the back "abnormally strong." This results in a replacement vector that tries to bring the storm inland until it resumes its expected path. Then the storm would run north (paralleling the coast) until it feels the water on the other side. This could mean east of Jacksonville then back in near Charleston or possibly farther north. While the TPC makes it extratropical after 48 hours, he's thinking easy shot at Cat 1 or even Cat 2 for a 2nd landfall in the Carolinas. Down the line, Chesapeake Bay/DelMarVa, eastern PA (which Joe believes will have very bad effects), NYC and on up. He also gave a headsup on his tropical update video today that folks in NJ/NY are in for a show today with rainfall amounts up to 4" in places and the shot at some pretty strong sustained winds. Last check on Bonnie's remnants had her near the NC/VA Border and headnig North fast.

The eye looks like it is going further NE and turning harder to the east than expected. That would send it out over Cocoa. That's the one place in the state that has been told it would miss the hurricane.

Been holding off posting about my weather, as Charley is just a tad more important, but since you mentioned it...

It's pouring here right now. Bonnie's remnants soak us again this evening, and then Charley's remnants on Sunday. Plus, Charley might still be TS strength depending upon forward motion and track. We could be getting 10"+ in the next three days.

Now, back to Charley...
