historical record of severe weather events

Explanation:
I would use 'historical record' to give additional clarity due to the number of uses of the word record in English. Recording is not correct here.

My feeling is it would be best to leave it as historical record of severe weather events in the bay of Cadiz. You could perhaps insert maritime before the word weather. The 'Durante epocas historicas' is already understood.

(long) record of events

Explanation:

'Record' is fine. But it would make more sense with a little embellishment, like adding 'long'.
