NycStormChaser Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 @SandySurvivor you can't compare the effects of Michael in Georgia since it didn't make landfall there. I'm sure you saw the damage between Mexico city Beach and Panama City Florida. Michael's affects at landfall were much worse than sandy as far as destruction in the typical sense. However sandy affected a larger area and was costlier. So it depends how you define "worse". Michael was A high end cat 4 at landfall and some suggest it may be upgraded to a cat 5 in the coming years when the full analysis is completed. Not trying to downplay sandy but if it didn't occur at high tide during the moon cycle it would not have caused so much damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though the storm was still packing cat 2 winds, it was nowhere near LF Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, it depends how you define "worse". That happened from a fire that started. Again, I'm not saying sandy wasn't bad but IMO they aren't comparable as most hurricanes aren't to one another. Michael flattened communities from the wind and storm surge alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BxEngine Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Will post this later in the main thread as well, when more of the offenders are present. If you declared this threat dead, “cold rain”, etc, and are in the thread to discuss anything beyond the impacts of said rain...enjoy your timeout. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarrenCtyWx Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 We could easily have a good period with a few decent storms in February and March, even if winter as a whole isn't a blockbuster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said that up until now, these things (or the lack of cooperation from them) has prevented a snowstorm (Even a light one) since met winter started.
