Meteorological monsters: Only 3 Category-5 hurricanes have ever hit the U.S.

Twenty five years have passed since a category 5 hurricane hit the United States, and Ilma may become the fourth strongest storm to invade the United States.

Hurricane Irma is a monster storm with a maximum wind speed of 185 mph in the Atlantic Ocean. In 1980, Allen recorded only one Atlantic hurricane with a high wind speed of 190 miles per hour.

The only category 5 hurricane that hit the United States in 1992 was Andrew, Camille in 1969, and an unknown storm in 1935.

After splitting the Caribbean Sea, Ilma may invade the United States on weekends or early next week. But now it loses momentum and is expected to be the fourth category before approaching the United States.

The five hurricane categories of Saffir-Simpson hurricane class are defined only by wind speed, regardless of storm surge, heavy rain or atmospheric pressure. All hurricanes with wind speeds above 157 mph belong to this category

The National Hurricane Center stated that these storms caused "catastrophic damage". Most of the houses were destroyed by category 5 hurricanes, often the roof collapsed and the wall collapsed. A fallen tree and utility pole divide residential areas. Power outage will last from several weeks to several months. And the area may not be able to live at the same time

On September 2, 1935, the strongest hurricane that hit the United States hit Florida Keys. Because of the location and time of attack, Arashi was later called Florida Keys or Worker Day Hurricane.

Hurricane passed through the Florida Keys between Key West and Miami and landed as a sustained category 5 hurricane with a wind speed of 185 miles.

423 people including 259 veterans of World War II who built a freeway to Key West who lived in the camp due to heavy storms died.

According to the Associated Press, many of the victims drowned, some people struck the Gulf of Mexico and others were drawn into the Atlantic after 15 ft waves. Some people actually die out

The storm of 1935 may be the strongest, but it is far from the most deadly one. In 1900, a hurricane occurred in Galveston, Texas, and about 6,000 to 8,000 people died.

Hurricane Camille attacked the American Gulf Coast on August 18, 1969. Estimated wind speed is 175 mph and gust is 200 mph.

The storm - the wall that landed with the hurricane - gave complete damage along the Mississippi River. When Arash crossed the Appalachian Mountains in Virginia, Camille's heavy rain brought more floods and deaths. In short, Camille killed 259 people.

On August 24, 1992, Hurricane Andrew headed to Florida at 165 miles per hour. A fast moving tight hurricane passes through South Florida at midnight, leveling the entire community, throwing the boat, moving the house, leaving millions of people without electricity and hope

Hurricane Katrina is the most expensive $ 120 billion natural disaster in the history of the United States, rated "only" at the time of landing and shows some of the drawbacks of wind power. Storm surge and New Orleans fail on the dam - not wind or rain - most damage

Hurricane Katrina is a level 5 monster storm. This is the most devastating hurricane that hit America. It causes more damage than any other natural disaster in American history. It attacked most of the damage after attacking Louisiana on August 29, 2005. It is after the National Hurricane Center has been reclassified as category 3 hurricane. It affected 93,000 square miles. The storm surge is as high as 27 feet. Hurricane Katrina was huge even before landing. The hurricane's wind is 75 nautical miles east of the center. Its maximum wind speed is 25 to 30 nautical miles. It withdrew 75% of the 819 manned oil platform in the Gulf of Mexico. This will reduce oil production by one-third.

Since 1924, only three hurricanes landed as category 5 hurricanes. One of the most famous hurricanes in the last few decades, Hurricane Andrew returned when it came in 1992, when it hit Florida it was a category 5 hurricane. Hurricane Camille was fifth in the 1969 attack, similar to the 1935 "Worker's Day" hurricane. Some people are talking about creating a Category 6 hurricane designation, but Category 5 implies almost complete destruction. Therefore, there is a measurement difference between the wind speed of 157 mph and the wind speed of 200 mph, but there may not be any practical difference in destructive power between Category 5 hurricane and Category 6 hurricane.
