61. After normalizing to today’s population, wealth, and dollars, the worst U.S hurricane was not ANDREW! It was the 1926 Great Miami Hurricane! Had that storm hit in the mid-1990’s, the estimated cost would have been over $63 billion with an additional $9 billion in the Florida panhandle and Alabama!
