110 years ago, one of the strongest (968.5mb) and the most deadly (250+ deaths) "cyclone" to hit the Lakes.  Plus the crippling snow-side of the storm with over 20" here in NE OH.

Lots of articles out there, but here's a great summary by Wiki.

Guess the gales of November were right on time that year. Crazy story about the L.  C. Waldo.
