Now I understand
Was just reading about why the Northeast was hit so hard last night and part of today. It really wasn't tropical storm "Phillipe". Phillipe had dissolved into a nothing burger by the time it got here but not before transferring much of it's energy into a low pressure area that came in from the west. The result was a much smaller version of "The Perfect Storm". It was really the storm that came along with the low pressure area, along with the energy boost it got from Phillipe that did all the damage. |

We actually got more rain from the no name storm a week before Irma than from Irma. Having that ground saturated and all the ditches full certainly made Irma worse. |
