It is hard to define which is the deadliest hurricane. the hurrican happened in 1979 is the most deadliest hurricane.
It was the deadliest tornado to strike the U.S. but not the most intense or the most destructive.
It struck Galveston, Texas.
no it was not. it was one of the deadliest though
I think it's Katrina, and the deadliest hurricane was a hurricane in Galveston,Texas in 1900.
The deadliest tropical cyclone on record (the generic term for a storm such as a hurricane) was the Bhola Cyclone. It hit Bangladesh (then called East Pakistan) and eastern India in November of 1970, killing at least 300,000 people.
Well, the deadliest hurricane happened in Bangladesh.
Not even close. It only killed fewer than 1900 people - hurricanes in the developing world routinely kill that many and more.
Most likely a hurricane, but tornados can be just as destructive.
No. Hurricane Katrina is still by far the most destructive hurricane in U.S. history and one of the deadliest. Hurricane Sandy is the second most destructive on record.
Its 31-day existence made John the longest-lasting tropical cyclone recorded in both the Pacific Ocean and worldwide, surpassing both Hurricane Tina's previous record in the Pacific of 24 days in the 1992 season and Hurricane San Ciriaco's previous world record of 28 days in the 1899 Atlantic season
The deadliest hurricane in recorded US history is the Galveston Hurricane of 1900. It struck Galveston, Texas, causing over 8000 deaths. This hurricane remains the deadliest natural disaster in US history.
No. Hurricane Andrew is nowhere near being the deadliest hurricane. Andrew killed 26 people directly and led to additional 39 indirect deaths. The deadliest hurricane to hit the U.S. was the Galveston hurricane of 1900, which killed at least 8,000 people and possibly as many as 1,200. The deadliest known Atlantic hurricane was the Great hurricane of 1780 with at least 22,000 fatalities. The deadliest tropical cyclone (generic term for hurricane, typhoon, etc.) on record was the Bhola cyclone of 1970, which killed at least 300,000 people.
