Hurricane force winds extend outward up to 15 miles from the center...and tropical storm force winds extend outward up to 155 miles...

Is this correct? If she keeps the hurricane force winds tight like this, the damage field will be comparably small like Charley.

I'm guessing this will grow overnight - the cloud deck is starting expanding along with the deepening of the storm.

Don't be surprised if we're looking at a CAT 4 by this time tomorrow...

The 2am model runs are what is going to prompt some watches for parts of Fla imo tomorrow morning.

There's a long time between now and Saturday afternoon. I think this has every chance of being a very dangerous storm, not only powerful internally but moving at a fast pace which adds to the forward wind speed.

If I lived in Ft. Meyers right now, I would be VERY concerned, but all from Tampa to Miami, and certainly all of the Keys, should be hitting the panic button around now.

It's not "Typo" Franklin at the keyboard :-)

She's got a very small, pinhole eye. Only 7 miles wide. A good indication she'll intensify rapidly.
