This massive and terrifying hurricane struck Miami, Florida on September11, 1926. It passed many Islands, such as Puerto Rico and it hit Puerto Rico with 150 mph winds. The Great Miami Hurricane was so large that the eye of the hurricane surrounded the city of Miami, so the eye covered 55.25mi/sq. This devastating hurricane was a category four hurricane. That means the winds of this horrific piece of nature range from 131 to 155 mph and is stated that power outages are more likely to happen. When the eye of the hurricane a moved away from Miami, the harmful winds had stopped for good, or so the people of Miami thought so. When they thought is was done, the new residents left their homes, and ran to the streets because they thought it was over.
