Hurricane Charley
Ouch.
First it was hitting the Tampa Bay area -- which wouldn't have done too much damage to my area (Polk County), but enough.
Then it headed straight for us. Even though we're in the middle of the state, it was a category four hurricane (winds about 10 miles per hour slower than the infamous Andrew), and had winds around 100 miles per hour still by the time it reached my area. Fortunately for me anyway, it left the northwest part of the county largely okay. Still, that was pretty damned close.
Though I doubt this extends to anyone here, I still extend condolences to everyone who wasn't so lucky.
