Nathan Howes
lundi, 17 août 2020 à 06:30 - On Aug. 17, 1969, Camille made landfall in the United States as a Category 5 hurricane, one of only four storms of that power to strike the U.S. mainland.
Hurricane Camille was the second-most intense hurricane to hit the U.S. and remains one of only four Category 5 hurricanes to strike the U.S. mainland. The combination of winds, surges and rainfalls from the storm resulted in at least 259 deaths and caused nearly $1.4 billion in damages at the time, equivalent to $9.9 billion current day.
Late Saturday night, on Aug. 16, 1969, Hurricane Camille roared past the mouth of the Mississippi River as it sped toward an all-out assault on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.
