Re: Tropical Storm Tammy Forms off East Central Florida Coast

Hurricane Charley was a very compact storm and while cape coral saw wind gusts close to 100mph sustained winds were cat 1 strength. Up in Port Charlotte and Punta Gorda we experienced sustained winds around 150mph with gusts much higher. Maximum radius of highest winds were only between 6-10 miles across. Very small but very destructive. I'm interested to see what 93L develops into cause we still have a lot of trees hanging by a thread here.
