you didnt film this, LOL
HOW DO U KNOW??
My sisterinlaws house was smashed flat
it was actually a 5 when it hit and then it bounced back and forth between a 4 and a 5. it sucked. the whole town was messed up. martial law and everything. no power for over 3 weeks. i lost my entire house.
it was a strong category 4 when it hit, never went to 5.
wow!! thats like anythin can hit u
I was in the 8th grade when this storm hit. an AMAZING experience.
my friend and I went down there after the storm to help clean up and repair. Tropical storms and Cat 1’s are good fun but nobody gets spared in a cat 4. This was supposed to come up Tampa Bay and wipeout my town. we were all prepared and already evacuated, Punta Gorda was completley caught off guard
we were on holiday in florida at the time of this hurricane, and a tree snaped and fell on our rental car, u know the thing about rental car insurance being a scam, wel its not , thank god we got, but the experience was quite good because i had never seen such strong wind
I was staying in Kissimmee when it hit. It knocked the end of our hotel out. It was a disaster area, the National Guard arrived the next day. Sandford airport was wrecked and it took us four days to get a flight home to UK. I was so scared when it was over head.
I never actually saw what the Hurricane looked like since I was too busy hiding in a closet praying to God the house would hold. But this was filmed a few miles from my house. All I can say is !@#$!
it was actually like the third strongest recorded winds of a hurricane during land fall on the US
esta chido el videooo
amo los huracaness
yeah it was a -FUN- huricane i remember standin out side when it came thru my neighborhood and watching the big pine trees snap and fly away - drivin thru ppls yards cause all the roads were blocked with fallen trees - and then the dreaded 3 week wait to get power - gas stations, grocery stores, restauraunts were all closed for about a week and a half so all we had to eat was can food and army rations! had one hellofa cookout though! had to cook it before it spoiled (lol)
I was near Sanibel island, about 25 miles SW of this, cowering in a bathtub. Scariest hour of my life. I never thought I was going to die, but I was sure that everything outside would take months if not years to repair. The condo two doors down didn’t have storm shutters and was completely gutted.
RollWithItVideos i bet man…i was in ft myers .when it hit. ..i bet it was crazy there…Punta Gorda got trashed…i had to go out side because the hood on my camaro popped up, i only weigh about 165, i got thrown about ten feet…but i got the hood on my car latched and dipped back inside..it was crazy but fun it that makes any sence.
all these hurricanes have names:
hurricane ike
hurricane charley
than watch next one will be
hurricane bob
hurricane george lol jk
Any chance they reclassify Charley as a Cat. 5??
yeah it was a five. i was living there when it hit it was insane. a lot of people are saying it was a 4 but thats only cause they didn’t pay close enough attention
It was almost a category 5, winds maxed out at 150mph sustained but it was 6 mph short
It was actually at cat 4 but at the outer edge of cat 4. a couple more mph and it would have been a cat 5
i wen through the eye of charley it was a lot of fun, good times
charlie blew off the storage house that we had in the backyard lol and shingles flew out of the roof and he almost open the door to our house i was so fricking scare he was dangerous but im glad hurricane katrina didnt came..coz it would had been a diff story …lol
i remember this day well. ive survived it all. earthquakes, tornados, hurricanes and fires.
Hurricane Charley was the meanest storm I’ve been in no doubt about it. NHC write up on Charley had the winds near 150 mph at landfall. Stronger than even Katrina.
