"Waiting For The Hurricane" takes place in Key West as the Labor Day Hurricane of 1935 strikes the Florida Keys. This scenario is very action-oriented, with the heroes fighting a cult running amok through the city as the hurricane descends on the island. State Road 4A connecting Key West to other islands in the lower Keys has collapsed into the sea. Stranded on the island, the heroes prepare to ride out the storm in the Grand Hotel but soon find themselves exposed to a cult that wishes to use the storm to cover their sinister plans. The fate of the city rests in the hands of the heroes.

A refugee Deep One Hybrid who fled the destruction of [[Innsmouth]] years before the scenario began is attempting to win favor with a new group of Deep Ones by forming a cult among the local human population, sacrificing 12 human victims born under each of the usual signs of the Zodiac to complete a ritual that will destroy Key West in a hurricane.

In short, if the players don’t go looking for the action, let the action come to them.... This scenario is easily moved to another coast area if doing so would better fit with your ongoing campaign."
