Incredible footage. I live in Sebring, FLA and this was by far our worst hurricane of the 4 that hit in 2004. I'll never forget the power line coming loose and sparking around outside - we were hoping nothing caught fire from it. The blue transformer flashes were non-stop, and the sound of pine trees creaking under the force of the wind was eerie. An experience you just can't grasp unless you lived through it yourself.

I was 15 when this Hurricane come thru my hometown of Fort Pierce, Fl. I went and stayed at my best friend's house off Jenkins Rd/near Orange ave in West Fort Pierce with her and her family and a few other random adults and kids. Waiting for it to come in we had a huge hurricane party (cooking out on the grill, bunch of drunk adults acting stupid, typical florida hurricane party stuff) which was a lot of fun. Then the hurricane started moving thru and shit got real, REAL FAST. Us kids were going outside during the 1st eyewall to experience the wind. Since it was night time it was crazy to see all those creep, but almost beautiful, bright blue-green power flashes going off all around us from super close to far away just everywhere. Then seeing the outline of the Australian Pines a couple streets over just swaying all the way over in the creepy loudly howling winds, it was intense! The eye finally moved over and everything was very calm. Going outside we could see the moon and even stars. Other than other neighbors coming out with flashlights to check around their homes it was such a eerie quiet, that you never forget. Then BOOM the back eyewall starts coming thru and all hell breaks lose again. About 15 mins before the back wall came thru i laid down on the couch to TRY and get a little sleep (it was like 3am or so by then) and i had JUST fell asleep when all a sudden we all hear "BOOOOM" against the back of the house! Right as the back eye wall moved in a huge section of their wooden fence ripped off and sailed hard right in to the back of the house. I literally FELL off the couch cause it scared me and made me jump. Everyone was laughing at me lol. I didn't get a wink more sleep the rest of the storm lol. I still live in Fort Pierce. I also went thru Wilma in 2005 staying with a friend in Port St.Lucie. However i missed out on Francis cause i went with my grandma to evacuate up to the Ocala area. Recently i did go thru Matthew, Irma and Ian. Stayed in west fort pierce for Matthew & Irma at my friend's house/barn where i board my horse to help take care of my and the other horses there during the storms. For Ian i stayed in my own home in fort pierce. And while Wilma was pretty bad none of them compared to Hurricane Jeanne! That was a beast of a storm.

The eye of Jeanne went right over my house. We went out in it and it was calm for about an hour then the back end came through. It was a rough night. Now watching Irma and I pray for the keys and Miami but they don't know where its going to turn yet.

Absolutely AWESOME, Mike!!! I was also in Port St. Lucie during Jeanne but, at my location, the power was totally out long before the strongest winds arrived... making it really hard to shoot video. It looks like you got some decent wind while the power was still on! I also remember getting there the afternoon before landfall and commenting on how all the trees still looked totally battreed from Frances a few weeks before.

1:02 the sound of that wind howl! I was in Florida through this and many other hurricanes and I've never heard that before. Of course, I wasn't outside during any other than Wilma. That's a story in it's own right.

Wow I remember this exact night...roof was very fragile and front door was giving in...rough night

I was 13. We had just gotten our power back on 2 weeks prior when Jeanne made the turn right to us. It was fun being out of school but hell otherwise.

Mike...Amazing footage!! What intense winds!! Pretty scary footage from inside the building too! 5 Stars!! Thanks for sharing!

Fantastic video! Thanks for uploading.

Great views of Indian River Drive!Pretty tore up there between Stuart and Ft Pierce from my recollection.

2:34 How did those mobile homes survive Cat 3 winds with very little damage!?

A lot of them got ripped open a few weeks prior during Frances, the ones that didn't were just lucky engineering. We all had blue roofs that year no matter where we lived

Wow, Mike, you've got some nice video. I love the combo of wind roar and blowing rain plus eye. Great catch.You even got the power getting cut off. Just the sound of the wind should be marketable.

One of the videos showing greater intensity Jeanne. Good location, Mike! :D

Born & raised near Stuart. Remember all these storms all too well. Hunkered down in the safe room waiting for it to pass, not knowing what would be left when you walked out. Very scary!!

I'm from Ireland and was in Florida when this happened. It was some experience. It was my birthday too. I remember the lift shafts were like roaring dragons. Next day it was business as normal. If it was Ireland, the country would be at a stand still for a long time

I remember being on holiday during this. Heard a huge crack outside and a palm tree fell parallel to ours and the neighbours house. If it fell on either of ours I doubt we would have made it.

i been in this one 2004 was a bad year for florida

0:59, 01:06 - Lightning and lights pulsing. Very scary, I remember when this storm made landfall in Tampa Bay where I lived particularly S. Tampa. There was lots of flood water and the amscot on W. Gandy Blvd. was without power, they had a generator running without the lights on in there. Super intense.

I was on my honymoon in the dominican republic when this passed over, was supposed to leave the day it hit. Killed a load in haiti next door. We were stuck over there for 3 days, and I got food poisoning. Never forget it.

Great footage, It seems as if hurricane jeanene is one of the least documented hurricanes as far as footage goes

good video mate, nice to watch that as we don't have hurricanes in Poland :)

Ooh.Awesome!!

I remember getting hit by Jeane and Frances within weeks of eachother. Our house was directly in the eye, pretty scary at 6 years old lol.

Cool! What was the date of landfall?

My place got destroyed during this storm. Brings back bad memories.

oh god another hurcain great

that was cool the streets flooded who would drive in irene

i hate hurricanes at night they can spawn nighttime tornadoes

did hurrican andrew hit port st ?????

Lived in Stuart Florida off Kanner Highway during that storm. It sure was crazy getting 2 direct landfalls within 3 weeks of each other with Frances and Jeanne. Going through Andrew in South Dade in 92 these storms in 04 were just an inconvenience.

At 2:48 is that rivergate park?
