| Hurricane Irene 1999 - Irene made landfall near Flamingo, Florida and continued across the southern Florida Everglades then made a exit just north of West Palm Beach, Florida. We first intercepted the poorly filled eyewall in the Everglades that late afternoon and then followed with the storm northeast. Once in West Palm Beach we found our strongest winds and convection. 10-20 inches of rain flooded all of metro South Florida. Hurricane Irene caused considerably damage due to flooding in South Florida. In some residential areas. Flooding lasted for a week displacing several hundred people and isolating thousands more. The total losses (agricultural and property) were estimated near $600 millions mostly in Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties. Additional losses to near $200 millions occurred in the rest of the state of Florida. An estimated 700,000 costumers lost electricity. |
