The Worst Storms on Record Ever to Have Hit the United States

Hurricane season, which officially runs from June 1 to November 30, is reaching its peak along the southern and eastern coastlines. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is predicting between 9 to 15 named storms (storms with winds of 39 miles per hour or higher). Four to eight of these storms could become hurricanes with winds of 74 miles per hour or higher, and two to four could become major hurricanes with winds of 111 miles per hour or higher. NOAA relies on a variety of tools to predict hurricanes, including more than 150 years of data on some of the most devastating storms ever to have hit the mainland. Here are some of the worst and most costly storms that have struck the United States. Via Home http://www.rssmix.com/
