Anyone that wants to follow the eye of the storm on radar, go to www.my-cast.com and register. You can then center the radar on the town you want and zoom it in. You can move the radar town by town as the storm moves. I have it centered on Boca Grande right now and you can zoom right into the eye.

Another typical August:
Hurricane activity is increasing and the Red Sox are choking.

Charley's pressure has gone up 2mb to 945mb, probably due to interaction with land. Hopefully he will not remain at his current intensity for much longer.
BTW, to change the subject very briefly, TD #5 has formed east of the Caribbean.

The reporter for NBC2 in Fort Myers was in Port Charlotte and wasn't expecting much at first, but then when it made that move a little more north he is now getting a direct hit. He said , which is moving right up Charlotte Harbor, is completely destroying Port Charlotte and Punta Gorda. He said the water level is down 4 to 5 feet being just sucked out of the Harbor. God help him when he gets the back end.

The guy's name Todd and he is in the eye right now reporting live from the eye of a Category 4 hurricane. Amazing.
BTW, get ready to do this all again, the system east of the islands is going to be TD5 at 5PM, and the has a 95KT hurricane south of Cuba in a couple of days.

Thanks, I haven't seen or heard this person either.
Turns out he was right, old-wives-tales apparantly *do* have some basis in fact.... We here in Orlando can testify that listening to 'the old wife', in retrospect would have been the right thing to do. When went Cat-III still down SW of Key West, I began packing to evacuate my mobile home...I had a feeling that it would track east of the forecast. It did!
