The information on this page was found in various places and results in many conflicting conclusions
Much of this information was compiled before 3 disastrous hurricanes hit Manasota Key which has proved it to be mostly "mis-information"
NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER TROPICAL CYCLONE REPORT ON HURRICANE MILTON
This map of Cat 3 storms shows only one direct hit on Englewood in 1944 since 1851
However The Great Hurricane of 1921, The No-Name Storm of October 08, 1993 and many lesser unnamed storms have done extensive damage
