Tall, I was under the impression the turn would be farther down the coast also, I guess we will just have to wait and see. EVERYONE of the west coast of FLA should be prepared, I think Charley may end up a cat3 before landfall, at the least.

S-SWly flow ahead of the deep layer trough. The models are actually keeping the general window of movement somewhat east of the Atlanta area in that depiction. What most important ATTM is that much narrower range of the field reflecting a higher degree of consensus in the shorter time frame. And thus great concern to anyone living anywhere from the Keys to the Big Bend area.

Winds 70 at 72hrs? Wow, is that due to the merging with the shortwave or just the SHIPS going way too high??

Yeah. I don't think the DC area can take winds that high. They shut DC down when Isadore came through as a TS.
