Hurricane Connie was a Category 4 hurricane that contributed to significant flooding across the eastern United States in August 1955, just days before Hurricane Diane affected the same general area. Connie formed on August 3 from a tropical wave in the eastern Atlantic Ocean. It moved quickly west-northwestward, strengthening into a hurricane by August 4. Connie first posed a threat to the Lesser Antilles, ultimately passing about 105 mi (165 km) north of the island group. In the United States Virgin Islands, three people died due to the hurricane, and a few homes were destroyed. The outer rainbands produced hurricane-force wind gusts and intense precipitation, reaching 8.65 in (220 mm) in Puerto Rico. On the island, Connie destroyed 60 homes and caused crop damage.

  • Hurricane Connie was a Category 4 hurricane that contributed to significant flooding across the eastern United States in August 1955, just days before Hurricane Diane affected the same general area. Connie formed on August 3 from a tropical wave in the eastern Atlantic Ocean. It moved quickly west-northwestward, strengthening into a hurricane by August 4. Connie first posed a threat to the Lesser Antilles, ultimately passing about 105 mi (165 km) north of the island group. In the United States Virgin Islands, three people died due to the hurricane, and a few homes were destroyed. The outer rainbands produced hurricane-force wind gusts and intense precipitation, reaching 8.65 in (220 mm) in Puerto Rico. On the island, Connie destroyed 60 homes and caused crop damage. After affecting Puerto Rico, Connie reached maximum sustained winds of 140 mph (220 km/h), and a barometric pressure of 944 mbar (27.9 inHg), as observed by the Hurricane Hunters on August 7. The hurricane later weakened, slowed its forward motion, and turned to the north, striking North Carolina on August 12 as a Category 2 on the Saffir-Simpson scale. Connie was the first of three damaging tropical cyclones in the 1955 hurricane season to hit the state, along with Diane and Ione. The storm progressed inland after moving through the Chesapeake Bay region, and was later absorbed by a cold front over Lake Huron on August 15. Ahead of the storm, the United States Weather Bureau issued widespread hurricane warnings, spurring evacuations, flight cancelations, and beach closures. Connie produced strong winds, high tides, and heavy rainfall as it moved ashore, causing heavy crop damage and 27 deaths in North Carolina. Four people were killed in Washington, D.C. due to a traffic accident caused by slick roads. In Chesapeake Bay, Connie capsized a boat, killing 14 people and prompting a change in Coast Guard regulations. There were six deaths each in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and 14 deaths in New York, where record rainfall flooded houses and subways. At least 295,000 people nationwide lost electric power during the storm. Damage in the United States totaled around $86 million (1955 USD). The rains from Connie contributed to flooding from Hurricane Diane that caused $700 million in damage. The remnants of Connie killed three people in Ontario, and also destroyed a few houses and boats in the province. As a result of its impacts, including a death toll of 77, the name Connie was retired from the Atlantic hurricane naming list. (en)
  • L'ouragan Connie est un ouragan de catégorie 4, survenu pendant la saison cyclonique de 1955. Au début, l'ouragan Connie n'était qu'une vague tropicale qui s'était déplacée au sud de l'océan atlantique. Le 3 août 1954,Connie atteint le stade d'un ouragan au large des îles du Cap-Vert.L'ouragan se déplace dans une direction d'ouest à ouest-nord-ouest,tout en augmentant d'ampleur et d'intensité.Ensuite,il passe à 83 kilomètres au nord des îles Sous-le-vent nord et Porto Rico.Le lendemain,l'ouragan a poursuivi son chemin vers le nord-ouest à 300 kilomètres aux Bahamas et tua 20 personnes.Le 9 et le 10 août,l'ouragan dérive vers l'ouest-nord et ouest et, pendant la soirée du 10, Connie vire vers le nord. L'ouragan a occasionné les inondations les plus coûteuses et les plus destructives des annales du nord-est des États-Unis. Entre les 10 et 12 août, vu sa lente progression, a déverser[Quoi ?] sur la Caroline du nord et, plus au nord, sur les États du nord-est, ainsi que sur la Nouvelle-Angleterre. Ce n'est que lorsque quand que l'ex-ouragan atteint la région des Grands Lacs que les pluies ont cessé. Il est tombé près de 30 centimètres pluis entre les environs de la Baie Chesapeake et l'extrémité sud de l'état de New York. Les réparations ont coûté 70 millions de $. Connie se dissipe le 15 août 1954. * Portail de la météorologie * Portail de l’océan Atlantique (fr)
  • 飓风康妮是1955年8月在美国东部引发重大洪灾的强劲四级飓风,当地还在短短数天后受到飓风黛安袭击。气旋于8月3日经东大西洋的东风波发展而成并快速朝西北偏西移动,到8月4日已达飓风强度。风暴起初对小安的列斯群岛构成威胁,后在群岛以北约165公里海域经过。康妮在美属维尔京群岛夺走三条人命,并摧毁部分民居。系统外围雨带产生飓风强度阵风并降下暴雨,波多黎各雨量达220毫米,岛上60户民宅被毁,农作物也受到影响。据飓风猎人观测,风暴在袭击波多黎各后于8月7日达到最大持续风速每小时220公里,气压944毫巴(百帕,27.9英寸汞柱)的最高强度。接下来气旋的移动速度放缓,强度也有减弱,转向北上后于8月12日以萨菲尔-辛普森飓风风力等级下的二级飓风强度吹袭北卡罗来纳州,成为1955年大西洋飓风季第一个对该州构成重大破坏的热带气旋(之后两个分别是飓风黛安和)。经过切萨皮克湾区域后,风暴继续深入内陆,最终于8月15日被休伦湖上空的冷锋吸收。 美国国家气象局在康妮登陆前向大范围地区发布飓风警告,多地人员撤离、航班取消,海滩封闭。气旋产生狂风巨浪并在沿途降下暴雨,北卡罗来纳州的农作物遭受重创,还导致27人死亡。华盛顿哥伦比亚特区有四人因道路湿滑引发的交通事故丧生。飓风在切萨皮克湾导致一艘船倾覆,船上十四人遇难,美国国会为此通过法律变更美国海岸警卫队的检查政策。宾夕法尼亚州和新泽西州各有六人死亡,纽约州降雨量创下新纪录,部分房屋和地铁被淹,共有十四人死亡。风暴期间,全美至少有29.5万人家中断电,损失总额约8600万美元。康妮产生的降水同数天后的飓风黛安一起共造成七亿美元的经济损失。此外,风暴残留进入加拿大后还在安大略省夺走四条人命,并摧毁部分房屋和船只。由于这场飓风造成重大人员伤亡和经济损失,其名称“康妮”因此退役,以后永远都不会再在北大西洋热带气旋命名时采用。 (zh)
