yes (2)

ENSO (ASO ONI)

pre-1950, no ONI

Peak surge (FL)

none exists for this era

Surge: no curated record, and none is likely to exist. Reliable landfall-zone surge observation generally predates neither the modern gauge network nor NHC Tropical Cyclone Reports for storms of this era; surge comparisons on this site skew modern as a result (disclosed on the methodology page).

Track

• below hurricane strength
• Cat 1
• Cat 2
• Cat 3
• Cat 4
• Cat 5
• first track point
• landfall (HURDAT2 L record, colored by intensity there)
• Florida-relevant point (strongest fix on the FL impact date)
• Florida Straits / Cuba shelf corridor (where track wobble is measured)

HURDAT2 best track. Coastline is stylized for orientation, not a boundary source.
