On October 1-2, 1893, a Category 4 hurricane struck southeastern Louisiana with 130 mph winds and a devastating storm surge that reached 20 feet in some areas. The storm appeared suddenly in the Gulf of Mexico, giving coastal communities virtually no warning. Chenière Caminada, a fishing village of 1,500 residents, was submerged under 8 feet of water within minutes—over half its population died, and only four of 450 homes survived. The hurricane killed approximately 2,000 people across Louisiana
