Bonnies ETA Thur am, FL panhandle. Charlie Fri around noon South FL. I wonder how much going over Cuba will weaken Charlie.

How often do 2 Tropical storms or Hurricanes hit the same state 2 days in a row? I hope the paths stay apart as predicted. Both of them landing close together would create some very serious flooding. One alone can do that.

I believe it is the eastern end of Cuba which is mountainous; so if it makes landfall as expected, it probably won't get torn up too badly. Lots of variables, though.

Looks like it's time to crank up MS Flight Simulator 2004 and select the ol' WC-130. Real-time weather data makes that program *very* interesting when these storms threaten.
