From the National Hurricane Center's best-track archive (HURDAT2), Atlantic and eastern Pacific, through 2025. A storm counts when its center came within 60 miles of the middle of Crystal Lake at tropical-storm strength or more. "Winds" is the strongest it was while that close, over open water; inland it is usually less.
