Florida - 2004 Hurricanes     
WE MADE HISTORY THIS SEASON!
FOUR HURRICANES IN ONE SEASON TO HIT FLORIDA! ALL WITHIN SIX WEEKS!
(Aug 13, 2004)
(Sept. 15, 2004)
(Sept. 26, 2004)
#1 CHARLEY
Tore roofs off and took trees.  Devastated the central counties
(image above shows Tropical Storm Bonnie at top & Hurricane Charley at bottom)
See slideshow noted above.
#2 FRANCES
The second in 3 weeks! During the Labor Day weekend, it cut a path across the state and delivered more than 24 hours of rain, high winds floods and  damage to already devastated counties!
#3 IVAN  
Tore up the panhandle worked its way up the east coast looped in the Atlantic ocean, crossed the state of Florida through the center as a remnant.  Once it got to the GULF again, it gained strength again, became a Tropical storm and struck TEXAS.  First time a storm has completed such a trek to strike twice!
#4 JEANNE
This storm spent a week looping in the Atlantic Ocean and finally turned for a strike on Florida peninsula. This is the fourth hurricane in 6 weeks.  STRONGER than FRANCES!

I did NOT make this.  It came in the form of a Powerpoint presentation in an email. I thought it important to share with others who don't realize that even inland, we can have severe damage.  Since many people can not see Powerpoint slide shows, I converted the presentation to web pages in the program.  If I knew where the ppt came  from, I would link to the website directly.
