This is hardly routine for a hurricane:

The equivalent of a tornado track - but probably 25 miles wide.

Hurricane hype is why. We are shown (for dramatic purposes) this YUGE spinning whirlwind with 150 mph winds to make you think it’s ALL like that. When actually only a small area has those winds and they diminish rapidly the farther out from center you get.

Michael was 350 miles in diameter, so a 25 mile path of destruction is imaginable.
