Michael, the most powerful hurricane to hit the continental U.S. in over 50 years

Not True

He seem to have forgotten about Hurricane Camille that hit slightly to the west of Michael 49 years ago in 1969.

Camille had the highest wind speed at landfall of any storm ever anywhere in the world.

I drove through the gulf coast from Florida to New Orleans after Camille. There was nothing but piles of rubble for miles and miles. And I was living in Homestead Florida during hurricane Andrew. It looked like an atomic bomb had dropped on South Dade county for a 30 mile swath all the way to the Everglades! Nothing was left standing for miles. I have yet to see that kind of destruction in any hurricane aftermath that even came close to those two storms.
