A history of the region's hurricanes. I was interested in those of the colonial era.

The links in the article won't work. Go to the actual page if you want to see the path of each 19th & 20th century hurricane.

If only we had signed the Kyoto Protocoal in the 16th century.

All this devastation could have been avoided.

Google something called "Paleotempestology"..it's going back before written records and directly examining the marshes and beaches, and tree rings for evidence of storm surges and hurricanes...

Nice work finding this. Now some enterprising FReeper needs to match this up against the Bush family geneology. I'll bet dollars to donuts we'll find a direct correlation between the actions of W's ancestors and these storms.

“1965 Hurricane BETSY: southern Louisiana”

My family moved to New Orleans two years after Betsy. There were massive barges washed aground between the levee and the river that we explored and played on for years.
