It wasnt until 1953 that the US started giving female names to hurricanes. It seems so odd looking back that the Galveston Hurricane was just that, with nothing to set it apart from all the hurricanes that since hit there.

One of the problems created by the storm was what to do with all the dead. The idea of dumping them at sea didnt work out too well as many of the bodies returned to the shore, despite being weighed down. Even graves at the cemetary gave up their dead.

Supposedly the storm caused a barometer reading of 27.49, which would've been incredibly low.
