Charley'sWindsComparedToHugo's
      Sun Aug 15 2004 05:55 PM

Hurricane Charley appears to have been a strong Cat 4 storm. Hurricane Hugo was also Cat 4, and although it was much wider storm, it seems Charley's winds were more intense in a concentrated place. Is the fact that it struck land with its right quadrant first the reason for the flattened homes and major damage in that small area?
