Description

In this National Geographic News article, read about the deadliest storm in U.S. history--a hurricane that killed at least 6,000 people in the city of Galveston, Texas in 1900. Incredibly strong winds and a storm surge of nearly 16 feet made the storm particularly devastating. Links to other stories, photos, videos and Web sites are also found on this page.
