Do you remember these hurricanes?

Ryan TruchelutTALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Dec. 1 marks not only the official conclusion of the 2019 hurricane season, but the final month of another decade we failed to name before it ends. A decade in which cellphones became just phones, more millennials visited Iceland than Sears, and politely declining to join your co-worker Janet’s essential oils MLM became increasingly difficult.

Sandy was responsible for more than 230 deaths and $70 billion in damages, slotting it temporarily as the second-costliest U.S. hurricane. As testament to Sandy’s bizarre co-mingling of tropical and mid-latitude weather, its remnants caused more than a foot of snow in Appalachia.The 2013 season was more incompetent than the sign language interpreter at Nelson Mandela’s funeral, tallying less than a third of normal activity. Two hurricanes formed, fewest since 1950, and one tropical storm made U.

Yet, Harvey has competition for worst hurricane of 2017. Hurricane Irma generated more wind energy than the entire 2013 or 2015 seasons, shattered records for Category 5 longevity and terrorized Florida for a week. Land interaction with Cuba clipped Irma’s wings on final approach, and the hurricane sliced through the Keys as a Category 4 before striking Southwest Florida with 130-mph gusts and riding up the peninsula.

On the other, 2019 served up twin Category 5 monsters. Lorenzo mercifully attained this status in the open Atlantic, well northeast of any known Cat 5; Dorian cruelly expended more wind energy in the Bahamas than any other Atlantic hurricane had over any landmass, ever.A classic Cape Verde hurricane, Dorian appeared poised to end South Florida’s post-Wilma luck.
