Mobile home is seen after being flattened by Hurricane Charley in Florida.

The remains of a mobile home in Harborview Park are seen shortly before sunrise, after being flattened by Hurricane Charley in Port Charlotte, Florida August 14, 2004. Rescuers raced into southwest Florida Saturday to search for victims and help survivors of Hurricane Charley, a devastating storm that leveled buildings and left up to one million without power. As a weakened but still powerful Charley headed toward the South Carolina coast, search teams with heavy equipment set out for Fort Myers, Punta Gorda and Port Charlotte, the Gulf Coast towns hit hardest when the storm made an unexpected turn south and struck with 145 mph (233 kph) winds.
