Hurricane Irene
October 16, 1999

formed from a broad area of low pressure in the southwest Caribbean on October 13th. It became a tropical storm on the same day and moved northward across western Cuba on the 14th with 70-mph winds. It became a 75-mph hurricane on the 15th and moved northeastward across south Florida. Irene dumped 10 to 20 inches of rain along its path resulting in considerable fresh- water flooding. The U.S. damage estimate is 800 million dollars ...all in Florida...and there were eight indirect deaths from electrocution and drowning. Irene moved from Florida into the Atlantic on the 16th. It moved northward toward the Carolinas...but turned northeastward on the 17th. It brushed the outer banks of North Carolina with tropical storm force winds on the 18th while intensifying rapidly to 110 mph. It also dropped five to ten inches of rain across portions of South and North Carolina. Continuing northeastward...Irene was absorbed by an extratropical low near Newfoundland. The combined system became an intense extratropical storm over the far north Atlantic Ocean.
