  • I think you need to get your facts straight.  Hurricane Andrew was not the most powerful storm any human has ever seen. The Labor Day Hurricane of September 2nd 1935 was the most intense Hurricane ever to hit anywhere in the United States. That storm hit the middle Florida Keys with wind gusts of 250 MPH and had the all time lowest pressure reading of 26.35 inches. It also killed 408 people with many more missing. There were no Tornado's in Hurricane Andrew and you did not see any.

  • i hope that everyone in the storm was ok or at least some bruises and scratches and there is one question they had tv in 1992 !?!?!?

  • I bet there were more than 2 waterspouts with how they form with the mass amounts of convection associated with hurricanes. That 1935 storm (from Key Largo) is one thing as a homeowner we never ever want to see but know we are ''overdue'' for one.

  • @ZZMann33 He has hair!

  • I cannot begin to fathom how terrifying it must have been for those who were in this storm.

  • @ZZMann33 when I lived up in NY State our High School had a canned food drive for the victims. I'm in Florida now but on the opposite coast,not far from Tampa.
