Hurricane Charley pummeled southwest Florida with 145 mph winds, killing several in Cuba and Jamaica before sweeping into Florida and the Carolinas. Officials warned of significant loss of life, with thousands homeless and 2 million power outages. Search teams faced debris clogged parks and hospitals evacuated as emergency crews distributed water and shelter.

Cedar Rapids man cites Charley’s spared lives

Peter Teahen of Cedar Rapids, a Red Cross media volunteer in Florida, says Hurricane Charley avoided catastrophic destruction by steering away from dense areas. He reports Orlando suffered outages and damage while west coast endured the worst. Teahen notes Charley may rank as the third most expensive Red Cross disaster after 9 11 and Hurricane Andrew.
