Presentation transcript:

“Reconnaissance aircraft first discovered the fully developed hurricane on September 9, 1944, northeast of Puerto Rico. As the storm moved west-northwest, it steadily intensified. Further reconnaissance located the hurricane’s center off the northern Bahaman Islands on the evening of the 12 September. At this time, the Category 4 hurricane was moving forward at km/h (20-30 mph) with top wind speeds of 240 km/h (150 mph). After taking a northward turn on 14 September, the center of the storm passed just east of Cape Hatteras, NC around 9:00AM. The hurricane then turned slightly to the northeast and accelerated to a forward speed of about 64 km/h (40 mph). At 10:00 PM on 14 September, the hurricane passed over eastern Long Island, NY as a Category 3 hurricane. The hurricane made landfall near Point Judith, RI an hour later and moved northeastward, passing just southeast of Boston, MA and out to sea at 1:00 am on 15 September.” (

Sept 8 th, 1944 – Sept 15 th, 1944

“As the storm moved northward along 1440 km (900 mi) of the eastern Atlantic seaboard, from North Carolina up to Newfoundland, it caused widespread damage. The hurricane cost over $100 million (1944 USD, $1.2 Billion 2010 USD) in damage and killed 390 people. The storm wreaked havoc on World War II shipping lines, and five ships sunk during the storm, including two US coast guard cutters off of North Carolina (48 lives lost) and a US Navy destroyer off of Florida (248 lives lost). Mainland evacuations and careful warnings, however, allowed the death toll on land to be fairly low: 46 persons.” (
