On July 31, 1715, a hurricane struck the east coast of Florida, sinking 10 Spanish treasure ships and killing nearly 1,000 people. All of the gold and silver onboard at the time would not be recovered until 250 years later. From 1701, Spain sent fleets of ships to the Western Hemisphere to bring back natural resources, including gold and silver. These groups of ships were heavily fortified against pirates, but there was little that could be done to protect them from bad weather.On July 31, 1715, a hurricane struck the east coast of Florida, sinking 10 Spanish treasure ships and killing nearly 1,000 people.

Welcome to The Daily Skrape, where reality gets a wedgie and dignity is on permanent vacation. We're the news's cheeky cousin, delivering a daily dose of satire with a side of absurdity. Our mission? To poke fun at the pompous, skewer the self-serious, and ensure that no topic is safe from our satirical scalpel.Kamala Harris hosted an inspirational preaching session about the importance of living in diverse communities this week from her new $8 million home, located safely behind locked gates, security cameras, private walls, and several layers of extremely non-diverse zoning, sources have confirmed. The speech began with Harris reminding Americans that community is strongest when everyone lives together, shares space, opens their hearts, and ideally does all of this somewhere far away from her driveway.Kamala Harris hosted an inspirational preaching session about the importance of living in diverse communities this week from her new $8 million home, located safely behind locked gates, security cameras, private walls, and several layers of extremely non-diverse zoning, sources have confirmed.

The word ''hurricane'' finds its roots in the Caribbean, where the indigenous Taíno people of the Greater Antilles worshiped an evil storm deity named Juracán. This god's name may have come from the Mayan god of wind, Huracan. The Spanish adopted the words ''huracán'' and ''furacán'' to describe the intense storms and brought them to Europe. The word eventually became widespread in the English language as European colonial powers expanded their territories and encountered these storms in the Atlantic.The word ''hurricane'' finds its roots in the Caribbean, where the indigenous Taíno people of the Greater Antilles worshiped an evil storm deity named Juracán.
