Wettest tropical cyclones and their remnants in LouisianaĮloise's remnants brought great moisture to the Northeast third of the United States in the combination of warm, tropical air and cold air from a cold front. If it were not for the intermittent invasions from tropical cyclones, rainfall during the months of August, September, and October would average about 25% less than it currently does. Three of the four systems stalled across eastern Texas, prolonging the rainfall which occurred over Louisiana. Recent examples of flooding across the state from tropical cyclones include Tropical Storm Allison in 2001, Tropical Storm Frances in 1998, Tropical Storm Allison in 1989, and Tropical Storm Claudette in 1979. Heavy rains and flooding are the primary problem associated with tropical cyclones across the Pelican State. Wettest tropical cyclones and their remnants in Kentucky The maximum in Kentucky not only represents their highest tropical cyclone-related rainfall amount on record, but also the state's all-time 24 hour precipitation record (through 1998). As it moved north-northeast, bursts of heavy rainfall were accompanied with the Soon after moving inland, the 1960 Texas tropical storm looped over South Texas, leading to heavy rains along the coastal plain near Port Lavaca. Wettest tropical cyclones and their remnants in Hawaii This was the most rainfall reported to have been produced by a tropical cyclone within the United States until surpassed by Hurricane Harvey in 2017. Hurricane Hiki in 1950 led to significant rainfall in the mountains, with 52 inches (1,300 mm) of rainfall reported. However, despite Hawaii's location in the subtropics, direct impacts by tropical cyclones are infrequent due to the protective influence of the Central Pacific tropical upper tropospheric trough (TUTT), which normally dissipates systems approaching Hawaii. This island state frequently sees rainfall from the remains of former eastern and central Pacific tropical cyclones. Wettest tropical cyclones and their remnants in Florida This rainfall amount remained the national 24-hour rainfall record until Tropical Storm Claudette's landfall in 1979. This is also the highest known point storm total maximum related to any tropical cyclone which has impacted Florida, and by itself would be the highest known rainfall total for any month, or any 24 hour period, from any location within Florida. Latest monthly and yearly readings are as of midnight and are normally updatedīy the National Weather Service between 9:00AM and 10:00AM each day.The heaviest rainfall to occur in 24 hours was measured in Yankeetown during Hurricane Easy in 1950, which caused 38.70 inches (983 mm) of precipitation.
