Wow. Everyone was comparing this to Camille before (and since it seems). May be more like Camille than we thought with hitting roughly the same area.

Camille had 200 mph sustained winds at landfall with 220-250 gusts and a storm surge over twice this one.
The way the wall rebuilt at the last moment and the path over the river delta weakened it fortunately.
