More quotes: ( Discussion 8/11 5pm)
The forward speed has slowed a bit more and...after wobbling a
little to the west this morning...the hurricane appears to have
resumed a west-northwest course...290/15. I see no major changes
to the expected evolution of the steering pattern since the last
advisory. Charley is forecast to curve around the western
periphery of a mid-tropospheric high pressure system and in about
48 hours...a large mid-tropospheric trough should begin to
accelerate the tropical cyclone north-northeastward. The current
official forecast is very similar to the previous one and is in
good agreement with the latest GFDL hurricane model run...as well
as with a consensus of the dynamical guidance.
