Re: ATL: IDA - Post-Tropical - Discussion
Damage in and around NYC from flooding seems much more intense with ex Ida than from Fay, Isaias, Elsa, or Henri. There’s some low lying areas of NYC/NJ with several feet of water well past the windows on some houses.

Re: ATL: IDA - Post-Tropical - Discussion
I will say this in retrospect. Ida will go down as a memorable storm. Gracious.

DE had a bunch of tornado warning, the flash flooding warning just expired, and there was issues with power all over the place, thankfully nothing to horrid. Had a day of epic downpours, mostly.

Re: ATL: IDA - Post-Tropical - Discussion
This is the most flooding I’ve seen here since Irene. Wind damage was minuscule to non-existent, but the rainfall puts Henri to shame.

I am only a meteorology enthusiast who knows a decent amount about tropical cyclones. Look to the professional mets, the NHC, or your local weather office for the best information.

I'm not sure if it will break top 5 tbh. That's a very high placement. Ida was extremely costly, but was it to the extent of Katrina, Harvey, Maria, Irma and Sandy? I could easily see it as 6th though above Ike.Blinhart wrote:Definitely will be a Top 5 if not Top 3 costliest storms ever.

No. We got photos and it doesn’t look bad. So we are just biding time.

Ida ended up as the 3rd wettest day in recorded history for my town. Just absolutely crazy...It was only slightly below Lee from 2011

Re: ATL: IDA - Post-Tropical - Discussion
The death toll is jumping in the Northeast. At least 22 dead in New Jersey and New York. Looks like that will be where most of Ida's death toll will be at...
BTW, the WPC has issued its final advisory on Ida. Good riddance!

Just horrible! It will be strange if there are more deaths from Ida in the Northeast than in Louisiana.

Re: ATL: IDA - Post-Tropical - Discussion
As a person who lives in an inland city far the coast where tropical cyclones reach the area as a tropical storm at worst, you can't never underestimate the power of a degrading cyclone even if are only remants, the rainfall wich usually is deadliest than the wind can still produce big accumulations and it's worse when you live near mountains, catastrophic damage is always posible

With all the flooding in the NE, this will very easily be top 5.

Not surprising though. People in Louisiana had days of coverage to tell them a hurricane was coming, even though the landfall location and intensity had slight changes. In contrast, warnings for the NE floods and tornados went virtually unnoticed in mainstream media until it was already happening.

Is this going to be worse than Sandy for the northeast? Or at least Irene?

Re: ATL: IDA - Remnants - Discussion
Meanwhile my family is talking about moving to the northeast to escape all the flooding and storms in Houston. I’m not sure if that decision makes sense anymore...feels like the northeast is just as hurricane prone as the Gulf lately!

I know I can't straddle the atmosphere...just a tiny storm in your teacup, girl.
Re: RE: Re: ATL: IDA - Post-Tropical - Discussion
No it's definitely not worse than Sandy. Sandy literally wiped some communities out with it's 14 foot storm surge. Over 125 people directly died in that area as a result. Ida's flooding is horrendous, but it's not really comparable to what Sandy did.Tekken_Guy wrote:Is this going to be worse than Sandy for the northeast? Or at least Irene?
