[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Only Cat 2, we did have Isabel hit 20 years ago. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/capital-weather-gang/wp/2013/09/18/remembering-hurricane-isabel-10-years-later-photos/ [/quote] That was the worst we’ve had that I was living here for. I didn’t have flooding, but hearing the trees crashing down from the wind in the middle of the night was terrifying. I live toward the top of a hill with no creeks or rivers nearby so flooding is less of a concern for me, but as others have said the topography of our are is very different than mountainous NC. But it could be terrible for people living near the Potomac, Anacostia or the Bay. Isabel was especially hard since it was the third horrible September in a row, preceded by 9/11 and the DC sniper the next year. [/quote]
