Hurricane Gaston (2004)

Wikipedia Overview

Hurricane Gaston was the third of five hurricanes to make landfall in the United States during the 2004 Atlantic hurricane season, which produced deadly floods in and around Richmond, Virginia. Gaston originated toward the end of August 2004 from a dissipating cold front, the same one that also spawned Tropical Storm Hermine. Gaston developed on August 27, off the coast of South Carolina. It slowly intensified while moving toward the coast, and Gaston made landfall at Awendaw, South Carolina, between Charleston and McClellanville, as a Category 1 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson scale with maximum sustained winds of 75 mph (120 km/h). Although it weakened over land into a tropical depression, Gaston drew moisture to produce supercell thunderstorms across central Virginia. The heaviest rainfall from Gaston was 12.60 in (320 mm), measured in the West End of Richmond. Gaston reintensified into a tropical storm by the time it emerged into the western Atlantic Ocean. It passed southeast of Nantucket before transitioning into an extratropical cyclone on September 1. The remnants of Gaston lasted until September 3 when they were absorbed by a larger extratropical storm south of Iceland.
