GWC Slideshow–June 7, 2013–Rains from Tropical Storm Andrea

Here is a slideshow from photos taken of the rains from Tropical Storm Andrea in early June 2013. Andrea, the first named storm of the 2013 Atlantic Hurricane Season, came ashore in the Big Bend area of Florida’s Gulf Coast just to the north of Cedar Key. The storm brought 65 mile per hour winds, 4 to 6 inches of rain, and tornadoes to the Sunshine State before heading up the East Coast. Here in Northwestern Middlesex County, the storm dumped 2.73 inches of rain over a 30 hour period. Pressure dropped to 29.55 inches while winds were between 20 and 30 miles per hour.
