Detailed English Update (Exercise-Darpan Style)
Beginning and the way to Florida
It was the first week of early August — Debby, a small
tropical depression, organized over the Caribbean, headed toward the Florida
Straits. It wasn’t just a tropical storm — we quickly saw it become a Category
1 hurricane on August 5, when it made landfall around 7 a.m.—near
Steinhatchee—and was strengthened by winds of 80 mph and 979 mb atmospheric
pressure.
It arrived in Florida with heavy rainfall and tornadoes. 20
inches of rain in Sarasota and 20+ inches of rain near Myakka City wreaked
havoc there. There was a 2-foot storm surge at Fort Myers Beach — but overall
structural damage was limited.
Power outages also worsened: not tens of millions but more
than 250,000 people were left stranded in the wilderness. Duke Energy sent 350
people from the Midwest to help get the electricity back on promptly.
And there was also a threat of a tornado in Florida. Tornado
warning in Broward County, and an EF1 tornado in Union County: a trailer
toppled, a small shed toppled, trees and fences torn down.
Georgia, South Carolina and beyond
Debby went into Florida and then slowly made her way to Georgia and
South Carolina. The second landfall occurred in Bulls Bay (near Charleston) on
the morning of August 8.
Later, rain up to 18 inches caused flooding in Summerville;
widespread flooding also occurred across parts of the Carolinas and Georgia.
North Carolina is in a tailspin of tornadoes: 60 tornado
warnings were issued on August 8 — the second-highest number in a day. Some
EF3-like strong tornadoes caused devastation.
Northern US and Canada
Debby’s path was toward the Northeast: rain and flash
flooding were expected for New England, Pennsylvania, New York, D.C. Fox 5 NY
reported remnants could continue to affect the NYC area, where rain could occur
between Thursday and Friday and Saturday.
The most serious impact was in Canada — particularly in
Quebec. The storm of vehicle insurance claims sent out more than 70,000
reports, and fThe final cost was $4.5 billion USD (Can$2.7 billion) — making it
the province’s most expensive tropical cyclone of all time.
Result Conclusion
Debby was a slow-moving, erratic but destructive hurricane
that started in Florida, then crossed the Southeast and caused severe flooding
in the Northeast and Atlantic Canada.
Florida was hit by rain, storm surge, and small tornadoes.
Power outages were also affected.
Rain and floods were more devastating in the Carolinas and
Georgia; tornadoes also caused significant damage.
The Northeast and NYC were threatened with heavy rainfall.
And it proved to be the most expensive tropical cyclone in
Quebec, Canada.
