Almost entirely from flooding - it stalled out over Honduras for four days.
Stan killed over a thousand people - and it was "just" a Cat 1. Jeanne was "just" a tropical storm along the coast of Hispanola and it killed 3,000 people.
Slow moving tropical systems over moutainous terrain are killers, whether it be Haiti, Honduras or Pennsylvania (Agnes).
Yeah, Camille in the mountains of Virginia was another of those that killed with floods and mudslides. I was just starting high school, I think.
My sister lives in Honduras. Mitch produced huge mudslides that just swept down mountains and took whole villages with it. Very sad, most of the damage was from rainfall amounts.
