Hurricane Charley and clay tiled roofs did not play well together in Punta Gorda FL.
Even homes that had other types of roofing in Punta Gorda Isles were damaged when their neighbor's tiles became airborne missiles.
The new, after hurricane, roofs seem to be metal that look like a Spanish tile.
The codes get tighter after disasters like Andrew and Charley, but the sight of all those homes with blue tarps covering the roof remains, is unforgettable.
