Answer to Puzzle #8019



"The Great Galveston Hurricane"
Image 1 - Historic building in "The Strand" to indicate the key word Galveston
Image 2 - The flower named September to indicate the event happened in September
Image 3 - The key word "Great" is indicated through Alexander the Great
Image 4 - The hurricane happened in Atlantic Ocean
Image 5 - It is a photo of hurricane Irma impact to indicate the key word "Hurricane"
Image 6 - It happened at the beginning of the 20th century - Year 1900

Image 3 + Image 1 + Image 5 = "The Great Galveston Hurricane"

Those days, the hurricanes were not named but Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale existed. It was Cat 4 hurricane that killed somewhere between 5,000 to 10,000 people in Texas. It wiped the entire Island of Galveston.

Credit for finding the answer goes to @PepperPot, @Gauri03, @butterflyice, @SunPa, @kaniths and @jskls. Everyone gave excellent clues.
