This guide to the Battleship New Jersey Museum & Memorial in Philadelphia puts you on the bridge deck during a December 1944 typhoon that caught Admiral Halsey's Third Fleet refueling off Luzon, after a fleet meteorologist badly misjudged the forecast. It follows the storm as winds climbed past seventy knots and barometers dropped to readings nobody aboard had seen, and the destroyers around New Jersey that couldn't ride it out. Halsey watched it all unfold from the bridge just above where you stand.
