We here in Punta Gorda, Florida (where Cat 4 Charley hit in 04′) are just stunned by the size of this storm. It’s like an ugly flashback for us. All day the skies over us here in Gulf Coast Florida have been low fast moving clouds with scattered rain. The clouds are this impenetrable leaden gray mass that just go from horizon to horizon, no sunshine all day. And we are at least 500 miles to the east of the eye right now. This is going to be a very bad storm. God help Texas.
