HURRICANE EARL

HURRICANE EARL’S FORECAST: SEPT 1

Page 13: REMEMBERING 2O10: PART 4 SEPTEMBER - DECEMBER SEVERE WINDSTORMS (CONTINUED), EARTHQUAKES (CONTINUED), LANDSLIDES (CONTINUED), WILDFIRES (CONTINUED), VOLCANIC.

The forecast for Earl identified the Cape Hatteras, NC, area as at

highest risk on Friday morning, September 3rd, and the

Massachusetts' Cape Cod and the Maine shoreline on Friday night and

Saturday morning.

Page 14: REMEMBERING 2O10: PART 4 SEPTEMBER - DECEMBER SEVERE WINDSTORMS (CONTINUED), EARTHQUAKES (CONTINUED), LANDSLIDES (CONTINUED), WILDFIRES (CONTINUED), VOLCANIC.

Cape Hatteras and other parts of NC’s barrier islands did experience huge waves, beach erosion, up to 6

inches of rain, and property damage, but no landfall.

Page 17: REMEMBERING 2O10: PART 4 SEPTEMBER - DECEMBER SEVERE WINDSTORMS (CONTINUED), EARTHQUAKES (CONTINUED), LANDSLIDES (CONTINUED), WILDFIRES (CONTINUED), VOLCANIC.

The situation for Cape Cod, Nantucket, Long Island, and Rhode

Island was worse than for Cape Hatteras, North Carolina because the storm’s rain- and wind- bands

were spread out over a much wider area as Earl moved north into New

England and Atlantic Canada.

Several landslides had occurred along the Nation’s

highways during the last year, and authorities knew of the danger, but did nothing; NOW, at least 58 are dead.

Massive landslides were triggered in Guatemala

following constant rain from Tropical Depression 11 E in that left the hillsides in the

region saturated with water.

Page 58: REMEMBERING 2O10: PART 4 SEPTEMBER - DECEMBER SEVERE WINDSTORMS (CONTINUED), EARTHQUAKES (CONTINUED), LANDSLIDES (CONTINUED), WILDFIRES (CONTINUED), VOLCANIC.
