The storm intensified into a tropical storm early the next day and a hurricane several hours later. Fox then significantly deepened, peaking with winds of 125 mph (201 km/h) early on October 5. Around that time, Fox made <a href="/wiki/Landfall_(meteorology)" class="mw-redirect" title="Landfall (meteorology)">landfall</a> in eastern <a href="/wiki/Pinar_del_R%C3%ADo_Province" title="Pinar del Río Province">Pinar del Río Province</a> of Cuba. Fox crossed the island and emerged into the Straits of Florida. Late on October 5, the hurricane struck <a href="/wiki/Bahia_Honda_Key" title="Bahia Honda Key">Bahia Honda Key</a>, Florida, with winds of 105 mph (169 km/h) and two hours later, hit <a href="/wiki/Flamingo,_Monroe_County,_Florida" title="Flamingo, Monroe County, Florida">Flamingo</a>. Fox emerged into the Atlantic Ocean near <a href="/wiki/Fort_Lauderdale" class="mw-redirect" title="Fort Lauderdale">Fort Lauderdale</a> early on October 6. The storm moved northeastward and later curved to the east-northeast. Late on October 7, Fox made landfall on Bermuda with winds of 105 mph (169 km/h). Fox weakened over the next several days and later executed a large cyclonic loop. By October 16, it became extratropical while well east-southeast of Newfoundland. </p><p>In Cuba, homes and cattle were swept away by <a href="/wiki/Flash_flood" title="Flash flood">flash flooding</a>. Eleven deaths and about 300 injuries were attributed to the tropical cyclone. Damage in the country reached about $6 million. The storm brought strong winds to Florida, with a sustained wind speed of 122 mph (196 km/h) at <a href="/wiki/Naval_Air_Station_Key_West" title="Naval Air Station Key West">Naval Air Station Key West</a>. Heavy rainfall exceeding 9.5 in (240 mm) in Miami and three tornadoes also contributed to the damage in South Florida. Throughout the state, 674 homes were severely damaged or destroyed, while 45 other buildings were demolished. Overall, damage in Florida reached $5.5 million and there were no deaths, but 36 injuries, none of which were serious. In Bermuda, buildings were unroofed and the sides of some structures were knocked down. Electrical light wires and telephone lines were toppled across the island. Damage totaled over $1 million. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Meteorological_history">Meteorological history</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=1948_Miami_hurricane&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Meteorological history"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:1948_Atlantic_hurricane_8_track.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/76/1948_Atlantic_hurricane_8_track.png/275px-1948_Atlantic_hurricane_8_track.png" decoding="async" width="275" height="190" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/76/1948_Atlantic_hurricane_8_track.png/413px-1948_Atlantic_hurricane_8_track.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/76/1948_Atlantic_hurricane_8_track.png/550px-1948_Atlantic_hurricane_8_track.png 2x" data-file-width="2700" data-file-height="1862" /></a><figcaption>Map plotting the storm's track and intensity, according to the Saffir–Simpson scale<br /><style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1214851843">.mw-parser-output .hidden-begin{box-sizing:border-box;width:100%;padding:5px;border:none;font-size:95%}.mw-parser-output .hidden-title{font-weight:bold;line-height:1.6;text-align:left}.mw-parser-output .hidden-content{text-align:left}@media all and (max-width:500px){.mw-parser-output .hidden-begin{width:auto!important;clear:none!important;float:none!important}}</style><div class="hidden-begin mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style=""><div class="hidden-title skin-nightmode-reset-color" style="">Map key</div><div class="hidden-content mw-collapsible-content" style=""><div style="display: inline-block;
