Odoneru hurricane: Difference between revisions

Notable because of the rapid succession of large hurricanes making landfall. In Cartadania alone in a three week period, a Category 4 hurricane (Karina) skirted the coast of Cambria causing massive beachfront damage. A cold front pressing south pushed the storm down into Aleira where it stalled for three days. As the wind slowed the rain over saturated the ground and massive inland flooding overcame river banks and caused widespread flash flooding. The storm pushed into Milano as a post-tropical depression and petered out, but not after dumping an average of 6 inches of rain in its path. An unnamed tropical depression passed up through Acara the following week causing minor flooding and wind damage. 4 days later, Hurricane Lorraine, a Category 1 storm sped into San Andreas. The storm was abnormally large and rain and wind were damaging in San Andreas but devastating in Cambria where the already breached rivers and dams were again inundated with rain. Trees fell at the lightest wind as the ground around their roots turned to lose mud. Roadways collapsed as their drainage basins washed away. Sewage plants in a number of communities overtopped and public health emergencies and evacuations were called. Landslides became fairly common but varied widely in magnitude.
