Tropical Storm Earl Follows on Charley's Path

MIAMI (Reuters) - While Florida tallied the devastation from Hurricane Charley, two more tropical storms gathered strength in the Atlantic Ocean on Saturday.

Tropical Storm Earl took aim at the Windward Islands and was expected to grow into a hurricane as it spun across the Caribbean sea toward western Cuba and the Gulf of Mexico.

The five-day forecast issued by the U.S. National Hurricane Center (news - web sites) put Earl on a path similar to Charley's, with the storm approaching the Gulf of Mexico by Thursday. But forecasters cautioned it was too soon to predict where it would go from there.

"The projections out that far can have large errors," said hurricane center meteorologist Dan Brown.

1. Local news said indications it might keep on westward.
Being very cautious, but they never said that about Charley. Said weather indicators were different for this one.

2. I feel sorry for Cuba. They are gonna get hit by a double wammie.
I hope Florida doesn't get hit again. They'll be in trouble.
