  • The 1856 Last Island hurricane (also known as the Great Storm of 1856) was a deadly and destructive tropical cyclone that is tied with Hurricane Laura and Hurricane Ida as the strongest hurricane on record to make landfall in the U.S. state of Louisiana, as measured by maximum sustained winds. The first known tropical cyclone of 1856 Atlantic hurricane season, it was observed first as a minimal hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico near Dry Tortugas on August 9. Moving northwestward, the cyclone quickly intensified into a strong Category 4 hurricane on the modern-day Saffir–Simpson scale by the following day. Late on August 10, the hurricane made landfall on Last Island, Louisiana, with winds at 150 mph (240 km/h), hours before striking near New Iberia. The system rapidly weakened after moving inland, falling to tropical storm intensity on August 11. The storm would be last noted over Mississippi on the next day. Offshore, at least 183 people drowned after steamers and schooners sank in rough seas produced by the hurricane. A storm surge between 11 and 12 feet (3.4 and 3.7 m) completely submerged Last Island in Louisiana, destroying virtually every structure, including the hotels and casinos, while all crops were ruined. Additionally, Last Island itself was split in two. Inland, heavy rainfall caused the Mermentau River to flood, destroying crops and every house in Abbeville. The storm produced as much as 13.14 inches (334 mm) of precipitation in New Orleans. In Plaquemines Parish, rice fields were under several feet of water, while many orange trees lost their fruit. Overall, the hurricane resulted in at least 300 fatalities. (en)
  • Stora stormen (engelska: Great Storm of 1856) var en tropisk cyklon som dränkte semesterön (Isle Dernière) utanför New Orleans 10-12 augusti 1856. Bland de över 200 som dog var många rika , lyxturister och deras slavar. (sv)
  • O furacão Last Island de 1856 (também conhecido como a Grande Tempestade de 1856 ) foi um dos ciclones tropicais mais mortíferos registrados na Luisiana, e empatado com o furacão Laura em 2020 como o furacão mais forte a atingir a Luisiana em termos de velocidade do vento. O primeiro ciclone tropical conhecido da temporada, foi observado primeiro como um furacão mínimo no Golfo do México perto de Dry Tortugas em 9 de agosto. Movendo-se para noroeste, o ciclone rapidamente se intensificou em uma furacão forte de categoria 4 na escala atual de Saffir – Simpson no dia seguinte. No final de 10 de agosto, o furacão atingiu a costa de Last Island, Luisiana, com ventos de 240 km/h, horas antes de atingir perto de New Iberia . O sistema enfraqueceu rapidamente depois de se mudar para o interior, caindo para intensidade de tempestade tropical em 11 de agosto. A tempestade seria notada pela última vez no Mississippi no dia seguinte. Pelo menos 183 pessoas morreram afogadas no Golfo depois que navios a vapor e escunas afundaram em mar agitado produzido pelo furacão. Uma onda de tempestade entre 11 and 12 pés (3,4 and 3,7 m) submergiu completamente a ilha, destruindo virtualmente todas as estruturas, incluindo hotéis e casinos, enquanto todas as plantações foram arruinadas. Além disso, a própria Last Island foi dividida em duas. No interior, fortes chuvas causaram a inundação do rio Mermentau, destruindo plantações e todas as casas em Abbeville . A tempestade produziu até 13,14 polegadas (334 mm) de precipitação em New Orleans . Na freguesia de Plaquemines, os arrozais estavam debaixo de vários metros de profundidade, enquanto muitas laranjeiras perderam os seus frutos. No geral, o furacão resultou em pelo menos 200 fatalidades. (pt)
