	1985 Atlantic hurricane season - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hurricane Juan (not to be confused with the 2003 storm of the same name in Atlantic Canada) was the costliest of any of the 1985 storms, with $1.5 billion ($2.4 billion in 2000 dollars) in damage, and twelve dead.
		Claudette was a long-lived, weak hurricane (terms not usually used to describe the same storm), that formed as a depression off the coast of Georgia on August 9th.
		Juan was a weak hurricane but was the most destructive of the season simply by the erratic track it took at landfall.

		1975 Hurricane ELOISE: Grayton Beach/Seagrove Beach history With landfall as a deepening Category 3 hurricane (the eye pressure 955mb (28.20 inches of mercury) had fallen 31 millibars in the 24 hours prior to landfall), Eloise is the most intense storm to have ever made a near-direct hit on Eglin AFB and the nearby communities.
		Winds of 100 knots (115 MPH) were measured at Eglin AFB before a window exploded at the observation station and the recording instrument failed (much to the distress of the young observer who braved the remainder of the storm by himself huddled in the bathroom as glass and debris swirled around him).
		While sustained winds never reached hurricane force in NW Florida (the strongest wind clocked at Eglin AFB was an isolated gust to 79 knots in a feeder band), there were several reports of tornadoes being spawned by Georges in and around the Eglin reservation.
