Hurricane Andrew was a category 5 hurricane that leveled a section of Southeast Florida in the predawn hours of August 24, 1992. It is one if not the most powerful tropical cyclone to hit the United States.

Well... nature sure did throw a big party in Houston to celebrate the anniversary!

Funny how the two Hurricanes' dates nearly coincided.

How is that possible?

That you watched a TV show about hurricane that happened 25 years ago "while it happened" when you are only 16 years old?

The documentary title that I found only went something along the lines of "Hurricane Andrew: As It Happened" it is basically news footage & commentary from the news people about before, during, and after the hurricane hit.

Sorry for the mistake.
