Guadeloupe indicated 14 dead, 40 injured, 1,000 homes destroyed and extensive damage to the island's infrastructure.
Damage in Cuba was minimal because the hurricane moved through so quickly.
Cleo also caused the Fort Lauderdale News, one of South Florida's biggest newspapers, to miss publishing, the only time that happened in its history.
Cleo killed 217 people on its path of destruction. Cleo caused a total of $198 million in damage (1964 US dollars)
It caused a lot of damage

The one in 1964 killed 217 people and caused $220mil in damage. At its worst it was Category 4, but weakened to a 1. The 1958 one was a category 5, but it didn't hit land.
