Hurricane Charley

A few windows to open before and during you watching this video shot in Punta Gorda Florida in 2004 as a Hurricane Charley barreled through.

Charley, the strongest hurricane to hit southwest Florida since Hurricane Donna in 1960 had peak winds reaching 150mph.

Roylance Playing it Safe

Frank Roylance- Maryland's internet weather answer to 80's Pat Sajak, comes in soft on his daily weather prediction. While his models call for 8 inches of snow, Accu Maryland models put this snow at 2-5" of base accumulation with a sleet into the later hours this evening. While Royalnce and his models play it safe my prediction factors in Appalachian wind patterns and the overall development and structure of this storm.

I do give Roylance credit for his research and with respect given inform our readers that this pump and dump that Roylance penned is nothing more then a whimsical trip into the world of weather. The fairytale dreams of 8 inches suggested by Roylance and his models are wrong. There is a 30% chance we get 8 inches tonight and there is also a 30% chance we get 2 inches. And while the fire power is there to dump 8 inches, I dont expect temperatures to remain low for long.

Don't plan on having off in the morning.
