 NOAA News Online (Story 2347)
Nine named storms affected the United States during the six-month hurricane season—three as tropical storms (Bonnie, Hermine and Matthew) and six as hurricanes (Alex, Charley, Frances, Gaston, Ivan and Jeanne).
Florida bore the brunt of U.S. property damage, with damage estimates (adjusted to year 2000 dollars) expected to eclipse the $34.9-billion in damage caused by Hurricane Andrew in 1992.
During 2004, the hurricane landfalls were also related to a strong region of high pressure over the western Atlantic in the middle levels of the atmosphere, which helped to steer hurricanes toward the United States rather than out to sea.

 DefenseLINK News: Guardsmen Support Hurricane Charley Recovery Operations
Guard task forces were taking part in Operation Gulf Winds to help the million or so Floridians who were left homeless or without electrical power and running water in the wake of the most powerful hurricane to hit Florida since Hurricane Andrew struck in August 1992.
The Guard was primed to cope with Charley because officials had begun preparing to deal with Tropical Storm Bonnie, which came ashore in Florida's western panhandle the day before and quickly moved north, causing little damage.
National Guard liaison personnel were assigned to every county in the disaster area, and aviation support was available to airlift personnel, supplies and equipment into areas where roads remained blocked from the storm's debris.
