It took 49 years before another hurricane would make landfall on the Gulf Coast as a Category 5, which was Hurricane Michael in 2018. That helps gives a sense of how extreme Camille was.

Michael was brutal, but barely crossed the Cat 5 threshold. We have extensive video from Michael. I can’t imagine something that puts that monster to shame.

I believe Andrew was a category 5 at landfall, but still a large time gap nonetheless.

Technically true although you might as well consider Katrina a 5. Yea it was downgraded hours before landfall due to EWRC but it still brought a surge similar to Camille
