The 1900 Galveston hurricane, the deadliest natural disaster to hit the
United States, peaked at an intensity that corresponds to a modern-day
Category 4 storm. Other examples of storms that peaked at Category 4
intensity, and made landfall at that intensity include: Hazel (1954),
Gracie (1959), Flora (1963), Cleo (1964), Madeline (1976), Frederic
(1979), Joan (1988), Iniki (1992), Luis (1995), Iris (2001), Charley
(2004), Dennis (2005), Gustav (2008), Ike (2008) and Joaquin (2015).

Ike was awful. You did an awesome job with that one too,NN. I remember it well. The poor Bolivar Peninsula got slammed so badly.
This looks to be a flood nightmare. I pray people in the path left.
I don’t see Camille-—that was a horror IIRC.
