You called this one as it happened. In this post (4) you said that storm turned right. You saw it before the weather guys.

The eye probably tripped over the racetrack ...
Wonder if it went around the circle once or twice?

Who would have thought that Daytona would get a hurricane through the back door like that.They do weird things like that. Dora in 1963 went from the Atlantic to the Gulf and back again.

Unlike Fran, who took her sweetass time moving through NC, if I remember correctly, Charley looks to be moving pretty quickly, at least so far. If it keeps up this pace it won't be as bad as Fran.

Nightline just reported Emergency services simply can't even get into many areas in Port Charlotte/Punta Gorda. Wish I had better news for you.Sounds bad. This reminds me of Andrew. Initial damage reports weren't too bad, but that was because the most damaged areas of town were inaccessable. We didn't see outsiders to our block for 3 days, you simply couldn't get around except by walking through the debris.

Myrtle Beach is under mandatory evac.

Local Punta Gorda report: US 41 business with roof failure, traffic lights down. I see palm trees are still standing. Widespread roof damage.

Yes - pray Charley is in a BIG hurry to get out of .....Dodga!
Fox News just showed a path that puts it East of the Raleigh area - later tomorrow PM. Moving FAST. Even that is too close for comfort for me.......packing up. Ready to go if needed.
To: Paradox
Three dead, 50 injured in Punta Gorda. per our local news, but they must have gotten it somewhere!

I like it. So did Charley "Go Away"?
Heard it came close to Sanibel. Bet it washed up some great shells!
