Wow ... That brings back memories of 1985! I just moved to S FL (from NY) at 15 y/o a week before Bob! I remember taking my bike to Pompano beach to watch the storm and check waves. Niel Frank was such a cool guy, flat-top buzz cut and all .. A true hurricane hunter!

Bob 1985 was the hurricane that should not have been. the pressure was too high.

I was 15 when this storm hit. My family and I were vacationing in Ft Myers at the time in an oceanfront condo. We had to evacuate because the of the storm surge. We came back though and finished out the rest of our vacation afterwards. I remember it washed out the condo pool and caused other minor damage mainly from the surge though. Brings back memories!

Hi Victor. The audio in this clip is the actual recording from the NHC while I was recording. There isn't any audio from the actual storm in this clip, just Neil Frank (the NHC director at the time) talking on the phone in the background.
