Hurricane Carla Leaves Her Mark on La Grange, Texas (Best Offer)
In September 1961, Hurricane Carla -- the largest hurricane of record in Texas -- possessed hurricane force winds 300 miles wide in diameter. Her gale force (tropical storm) winds were 500 miles wide. Because of the size, the entire Texas coastline felt her effects, with heavy damage reported as far inland as Dallas. Even today, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration ranks Carla as the tenth most intense U.S. hurricane at landfall, her remnants tracked from Texas all the way to Chicago, Illinois.
