Storm of the Month - May [ Nominations ]

May was an active month across our planet and many storms and weather events received notoriety because of their power, destructiveness, but in some cases, their help. Lets nominate those that you think should be the "Storm of the Month." You have 48 hours to nominate as many as you want!

Can someone explain why 90L should be nominated? It was rain and a little wind, big deal. Not really worthy of "storm of the month".

Maybe because it single-handed almost eradicated the drought in Florida, including setting May rainfall records.
