The Great Labor Day Storm of 1935. This was a hurricane that occurred on Labor Day in 1938, and was a traumatic category five hurricane. It had a minimum pressure of 892 millibars, and it caused 423 deaths in Florida This a considerable number of deaths considering the time period, the 30's. It was the third most intense hurricane on record to date. The hurricane was very intense with numerable strong winds. A woman got blown 40 miles from the FL keys to Cape Sable. This storm is very comparable to the hurricane of 1992, Hurricane Andrew.
