You can’t go by death toll alone to determine a hurricane’s intensity. If you did, then by your logic the Galveston Hurricane was stronger than Wilma or Gilbert – and we know that’s not true. We have fewer deaths now due to ample warnings and better living conditions and better construction.
You are pulling at some really strange straws.
The storm surge in Galveston was 15 feet. The city was completely destroyed just as it would be now.
Can you imagine a major hurricane in early June now? That is almost unthinkable.
Are you kidding?
That’s in a completely different basin, and it hit on April 29, 1892. Different basins (especially in different hemispheres) have different peak windows of activity. In the west pac, super typhoons can form in December.
What a load of nonsense. Major Atlantic hurricanes almost never happen that early in the year now.
You’re confusing basins. Major hurricanes form at different times and have different seasonal lengths than those in the south indian ocean, or the pacific ocean.
In the northwestern pacific, there have been many super typhoons in December.
That 1892 storm wasn’t an Atlantic hurricane.
Here’s a 155mph typhoon that formed in January:

In 1908 the US was hit by two large hurricanes by the end of May. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1908_Atlantic_hurricane_season
Wrong.

The only hurricane in May was a minimal hurricane.
Did you even look at the link you posted?
There was a category two hurricane in March with 100 MPH winds. Don’t be daft.
