It's really, really tough to categorize "size" for hurricanes, mainly because we don't have those records before the satellite era in many cases. Intensity-wise, the strongest in terms of wind speed to hit the US is Camille (190mph); the strongest in terms of pressure was the 1935 Fl. Keys hurricane (892mb).
