Media Clarification!
Iwas just watching the Fox News Channel's tropical update. The meteorologist stated that TD#5 might take the same track as Charley. What i think she meant is that TD#5 will take a similiar track through the carribean, beyond that the track is still up in thre air. Statements like this can be taken to mean that Charley will end up in Florida again, and this is something Floridians just don't need right now.

Gosh, isn't it too early for a media outlet to make a statement like that? I mean, only two of the, what, five models are even projecting out that far and of those, only one of them is showing the western Cuba track. This is what I mean by irresponsible journalism.

I think you are right. I heard yesterday evening a local Tampa met (from CBS) say the same thing.
