  • Hurricane Luis was a very large, very intense and a long-lived Cape Verde-type hurricane as well as being among the most notable storms of 1995, the strongest at landfall and alongside Hurricane Felix, was the second most powerful storm during the unusually active 1995 Atlantic hurricane season. At one point during the season, the storm was one of four simultaneous Atlantic tropical systems, along with Humberto, Iris, and Karen. The tropical cyclone lasted for 16 days during late August and middle September. Luis caused very extensive damage in the northern Lesser Antilles, especially in Antigua, Barbuda, St. Barthelemy, St Martin and Anguilla with winds of 135 mph (215 km/h), killing 17 people, leaving more than 20,000 homeless and causing at least $2.5 billion in damage through the affected areas. This hurricane was also responsible for an intense rogue wave which struck RMS Queen Elizabeth 2 on Monday, September 11, though the ship survived with hardly any damage. Luis was one of the three storms which affected Guadeloupe in a short period of time; the first was Hurricane Iris a week before and the other was Hurricane Marilyn only ten days afterward.
