Just a thought...
How is Charlie suppose to start turning NW immediately (according to the NHC tracK) with that ULL parked to its west and not moving much?

No Joke Houstoner!!!
I cannot stand the thought of it even coming close to Texas. I like the comforts of home without mess, tree limbs, blown off roofs, electricity, phone, water, internet, and lets not forget A.C.!! I spent a week without electric after Claudette last year and let me tell you it was AFRICA HOT!! Don't want to do that again anytime soon. I do feel for those folks in Florida I really do!!

Looking at this Water Vapor Loop you can see the ULL is moving westward slowly..
http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/PS/TROP/DATA/RT ... -loop.html
It's suppose to happen within 24 hours..nothing imeadiate required..so far NHC has done well..
A TURN TOWARD THE NORTHWEST IS EXPECTED DURING THE NEXT 24 HOURS.
From the 5pm Discussion..

HURRICANE CHARLEY DISCUSSION NUMBER 10
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
5 PM EDT WED AUG 11 2004
THE LAST RECON MISSION FOUND 80 KT AT THE 850 MB FLIGHT LEVEL WHICH
SUPPORTED THE UPGRADE OF CHARLEY TO A HURRICANE. SINCE THAT TIME
THE CLOUD PATTERN HAS REMAINED WELL-ORGANIZED WITH A RAGGED
BANDING-TYPE EYE SHOWING UP INTERMITTENTLY ON VISIBLE SATELLITE
IMAGES. THE UPPER-LEVEL OUTFLOW IS WELL ESTABLISHED OVER ALL
QUADRANTS EXCEPT THE SOUTHWEST...PROBABLY DUE TO THE PRESENCE OF A
WEAK UPPER-LEVEL LOW NEAR THE COAST OF HONDURAS. HOWEVER THIS LOW
IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE MOVING WEST-SOUTHWESTWARD... SO THE
ATMOSPHERE IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN FAVORABLE...AND THE OCEAN VERY
FAVORABLE...FOR STRENGTHENING. THE LAND MASS OF WESTERN CUBA
SHOULD CAUSE AT MOST A TEMPORARY INTERRUPTION OF THE
INTENSIFICATION PROCESS.

Note that the BAMD has shifted radically to join the other models in the 06Z run....now into the big bend of FL rather than wandering into the GOM.
The 00Z UKMET and NOGAPS are into the Eastern FL Panhandle; however, both models incorrectly initialized Charley too far South And Charley is a significant distance north of their forecast tracks already.

Just got 988 mb with this system. 98 kt winds with this at flight level and this system could begin a very rapid intensifying phase here this morning. The potential of 100 mph winds at 5 am seems pretty accurate. This is a very dangerous situation for the western Caribbean and eventually for Florida's peninsula!!!

ECMWF...MASSIVE shift, joins all other models with FL hit...
Heh...
Thought this would happen.
http://www.ecmwf.int/products/forecasts ... 4081200!!/
Note: one problem is that they don't display the first 3 days there.
However, that's clearly Charley there on the coast of South Carolina, having passed over FL.
All of the non-Florida models are gone, basically; at 06Z the BAMD also shifted massively to join everything else in hitting FL.
Only thing you may see now on the hurricane alley plots or something is CLIPER, a basically worthless pure climo model, with a track into the west or central GOM.

That can't be good.
