And where in the flying fuck did the WATER part come from? If he were a real man he would have insisted on his wife and children being in the tub, or at least his children if his wife couldn't fit in there, too. My parents married three years before this happened, in 1966. They rode out hurricane Beulah in south Texas when my oldest sister was an infant, and my dad would have died before he ever let anything happen to my mom or her. He was forward thinking for the time, though... one of the first things he did after they married was get my mom a credit card that was solely in her name (which she couldn't do on her own back in the '60s) just in case something ever happened to him. He was always planning for the future to make sure his family was taken care of, and he's still of that mindset almost 58 years later.

Hurricane Camille was a 6 not a 5 and I will never forget Camille. We had 13 pine trees on our house which kept the roof from coming off. The sound I will never forget. The ceiling actually breathing in and out. All of the adults crying and calling on the name of Jesus. The last report was winds at 200 MPH. Like a huge tornado. Moving like a freight train and sounding like a jet going through your home.i will never forget the eye came over and it was very quiet and then all hell broke loose. If you experienced Camille you would never forget and you respect what a hurricane can do. I pray to God their will never be another Camille.

Camille was a good "7". A five starts at 157mph. Camille is a verified from a number of sources to have had winds of 210mph with gusts of 225mph. The difference between grades or classes is about 15-20mph. A "1" starts at 75 and goes to 95 to 100, 2 goes to 115 a three goes from 115 to 130, a four 130 to 156 a five 156 to 176, a six 176 to 196, a seven 196 to 216. Camille, a good seven. On Monday Aug. 18, 1969 at the start of the CBS NEWS Walter Cronkite came on and said the WeTher Service was considering naming Camille a Tornocane it was so strong. They have tried to upgrade Andrew and downgrade Camille. They don't tell u that they don't really know how strong Camille was because the Hurricane Hunters refused to fly the last 2 missions out of fear of what happened to the plane in a similar storm in 1955 named Janet which passed over Swan Island off Belieze with 210mph. winds.a Taiwanese freighter in Gulfport harbor registered 180knot winds that converts to 210mph. The grass was blown out of the ground beyond the reach of the surge. A meteorologist in D.C. told me that phenomenon STARTS at 200mph. Another location recorded 180kts. The barometric pressure at landfall was .900milibars. Hurricane Dorian in the Bahamas had pressure of .918 minibars and winds of 185, Michael which hit Mexico Bch. With 160mph winds had .936 minibars, Ian in SW Florida had 150 mph winds and .940 milbars There a direct correlation between wind strength and baro pressure. Lower pressure equals higher wind.

There is no such "official" thing as a category 6, 7, or whatever else people try to claim. The scale tops out at a 5 because at that point it doesn't matter; the destruction is going to be just as catastrophic with winds at those speeds.

Camille is the ultimate what if it hit somewhere populated storm, what if a storm of that magnitude hit Miami, Tampa or Galveston. If a storm with the winds and surges of Camille took the route of the 1926 Great Miami Hurricane it would’ve made Andrew look like a minor freak wind event

My cousins, aunts, uncles and grandma went through Camille, while my immediate family and I were safe in New Hampshire. When we moved to the MS gulf coast, we heard all about it! The first hurricane warning we had after we moved north of Biloxi, to d'Iberville, we headed to northern MS where my dad's family was from. The hurricane veered off at the last second. For the 2nd hurricane warning, we decided to stay home north of Biloxi. That storm veered off, too. Needless to say, both times natives of the gulf coast were very, very nervous.

I was (9) nine years old. We live in (BSL) Bay St. Louis. I remember the eye of the hurricane as it past over us. Then came the water.

@@joshpittman6021 it was definitely not blown out of proportion, in fact it was the opposite for those outside of New Orleans. A lot of people focus on New Orleans (and rightfully so) with it practically being a man made catastrophe there, but in Mississippi where the storm actually hit, it caused damage that was almost reminiscent of Camille. The death toll of both in the Mississippi area is practically the same, but Katrinas storm surge was atleast 5ft higher where it made landfall, and 15ft higher than Camilles for surrounding areas due to it's sheer size. If New Orleans didn't even exist and Katrinas only impacts were in Mississippi, it'd still be one of costliest ($30 billion) and deadliest in American history

When Katrina made landfall, her winds were far weaker than Camille's ... twice the size, bigger storm surge correct ... winds at landfall ... not even close.

The anemometer of a beached ship where Hurricane Camille made landfall "fails at 200 knots" = 230mph winds, which is almost certainly not sustained by any chance of the imagination but impressive nevertheless. Yet, based on a factual barometer pressure reading of 900mbar, they downgraded the sustained winds from 185mph to 175mph on reanalysis of historic hurricanes several years back ... perhaps, they need to be reevaluate their decision with regards to Camille.

I think Katrina got camile beat
