I recall Wilkes-Barre, PA, was especially hard hit by the flooding. Other cities and towns on the Susquehanna River were hit by flooding as well. I had extended family in Wilkes-Barre at that time, and heard firsthand about it.

The Brandywine Creek runs through the heart of Downingtown. It greatly overflowed its banks and flooded Kerr Park in Downingtown. I don’t remember any great local damage, though.

It was amazing being that far inland and getting the brunt of the storm.

We actually got a tiny bit of rain here in North Idaho from Hurricane Hilary that hit Baja California and worked its way up the west coast. It dumped a normal year’s worth of rain in a couple of days in Southern California areas.
