One Year Ago Today



IMMINENT DANGER: Charley to strike Sanibel with 145 mph winds before crushing mainland

IMMINENT DANGER: Charley is over Captiva with 145 mph winds; will blitz mainland within the hour

IMMINENT DANGER: Charley is over Pine Island with 145 mph winds; mainland siege is next

Charley took everyone by surprise. Against predictions, at the last minute it both decided to change course and to strengthen. A bad time for a lot of good people lay ahead.
