I am the only one that has heard that before while learning or reading, and/or watching about US history: 1900 in the month of September of that year?
........hmm what was it?
Just asking not to imply the same thing okay?
Over a 100 years ago with very little weather tech....
I hate it when my brain gets stuck......think now.......any help would be great....

TROPICAL STORM FORCE WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO BEGIN LATE
MONDAY NIGHT AND PERSIST THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS ON TUESDAY. THE HIGHEST WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO OCCUR ACROSS COASTAL AREAS OF BRAZORIA...GALVESTON...AND CHAMBERS COUNTIES WHERE SUSTAINED WINDS OF 50 TO 65 MPH ARE EXPECTED. ACROSS LIBERTY...HARRIS...JACKSON...AND MATAGORDA COUNTIES SUSTAINED WINDS SHOULD PEAK IN THE 40 TO 50 MPH RANGE.

And that’s just what they’re saying now. Hang on.

I believe you are referring to the Great Hurricane of 1900 which wiped out Galveston with over 8,000 killed. Still’ the worst natural didaster in U.S. history.
