I'm seeing no turn or even any indications of one about to start. Yes, he may have slowed down some but he is still progressing steadily just slighty north of due WEST. Charley is well over 100 miles south of the TPC forecast track from last night and early this morning and nearly 50 miles south of the 11am and still moving west. Somethings got to give if he doesn't turn soon. Even small changes in track can cause large errors in a long range forecast. 100 miles on a 12 hour forecast is not small in my opinion.

How interesting it is? Charles slows down a little and gets a little stronger. Also, I know that this is only temporary but whats up with the jog to the left south of Jamaica, mon. When is the last time that TWO tropical cyclones (aka hurricanes) made landfall in the same state within 24 hours? Is that one for the tropical record books.
