Follow the 1926 hurricane path with category-coded tropical storm and hurricane symbols.

02Source viewer sample

Open selected historical images and documents in the same viewer system being used for the full archive.

03Centennial exhibit style

Preview the visual system, navigation, colors, typography, and archive-room tone before the complete launch.

Storm Track Preview

The working Leaflet storm-track preview.

This is the functional preview of the track feature. The full site will add expanded interpretation, more curated notes, and source links for the centennial launch.

Selected Working Viewer Samples

A few real preview items from the archive.

These are intentionally limited. They demonstrate the viewer, zoom, contrast/color controls, and source-card style without opening the full image archive or book library early.

The full launch will add the expanded exhibit rooms, flipbook library, restored print sets, documents, newspapers, Miami Beach and Downtown galleries, and complete archive navigation.
Coming for the Centennial

The complete archive is launching soon for the 100th anniversary of the Great Miami Hurricane.

The full 1926HURRICANE.COM experience will expand this preview into a complete digital exhibition with interactive mapping, restored images, newspapers, booklets, first-hand accounts, Weather Bureau records, Miami Beach and Downtown rooms, and curated historical interpretation.
