Shear kicking in NNE GOM through Sat......

Looks like Charley will run into some of that shear, as well as Bonnie, probably keeping him on the Tampa Bay and South track, I would guess:

I wouldn't expect Charley to move that far north in the GOM. All wind shear values in the SE GOM will be less than 10m/s. No problems there.
