Styx talks about his experience with Hurricane Irene in Vermont. Because of rainfall being concentrated in valleys, the storm did as much damage there as it did at landfall. And this was after the storm had "gone across the whole Appalachian Chain" and had supposedly been depleted. "It still smashed into us like a sledge hammer."

Very true. Heck, Ike did substantial damage in the ST. LOUIS, MO, area...

It flooded my town here in So.Vt above the historic high flood level in three hours. Wiped out all access in and out for three days, and heavy truck access for two weeks. No power for days and no fuel. I’m well prepared so no problem for my family, power, heat hot and cold running water. I have all manner of vehicles with abilities beyond most, but many suffered and we’re in the mountains 150 mi from the sea.
