There has been a general upward trend in the number of weaker TCs making landfall (although this could at least partly be due to increasingly better observations over time) and a general downward trend in the number of major (Cat 3-5) hurricane landfalls.Most landfalls occurred in August (12) and September (12), with the earliest landfalls (2) in May and the latest landfalls (7) in October.17 TCs made landfall in Charleston County, SC, 9 in Beaufort County, SC, 6 in Chatham County, GA, 4 in McIntosh County, GA, 3 in Liberty County, GA, and 2 in Colleton County, SC.25 TCs were H, 9 were TS, and 7 were TD.Since official records began in 1851 through 2018, 41 TCs made landfall in the NWS Charleston, SC CWA.Furthermore, there was a slight preference for more (and stronger) TCs during moderate-strong La Nina conditions compared to moderate-strong El Nino conditions. Also, all 7 of the major (Cat 3+) hurricanes occurred during either La Nina or neutral ENSO conditions. However, early in the season more TC occurred during El Nino conditions. From 1950 to 2018, more TCs occurred during "cool" El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) conditions (i.e., La Nina) compared to "warm" ENSO conditions (i.e., El Nino).There is a general increasing trend of early (prior to June) and late (after October) season TCs, possibly related to improved observations over time.There also appears to be cycles of TCs, especially H, likely associated with the Atlantic Multi-decadal Oscillation. This could at least partially be explained by better observations of weaker systems over time. There are general increasing decadal trends in total TCs and TD but general decreasing decadal trends in TS, H, and MH.Note that the 10 TCs that spanned 2 different months were counted twice (once for each month). The earliest TC was a TS that passed offshore in February 1952. Most TCs occurred during the typically busier period in the Atlantic basin from August through October, but June and July were also fairly active followed by May and November.Since official records began in 1851 through 2018, 309 TCs tracked through a domain roughly centered around the NWS Charleston, SC County Warning Area (CWA), which runs from Charleston County, SC to McIntosh County, GA.More local tropical cyclone statistics can be found here.

Refer to the National Hurricane Center data archive page and NOAA Historical Hurricane Track s websitefor more information. The following data is mainly based on the official Atlantic basin tropical cyclone (TC) database (HURDAT), which includes known tropical depressions (TD), tropical storms (TS) and hurricanes (H) back to 1851.
The Disaster Relief Appropriations Act of 2013 provided emergency relief funding to multiple Federal agencies in order to assist in the recovery efforts. As part of this legislation, New York City received roughly $4.2 billion in Community Development Block Grant - Disaster Recovery funding to address a range of needs, including rebuilding and rehabilitating housing, assisting displaced tenants, providing aid to businesses, and bolstering coastal defenses.SC Lowcountry/ GA Coastal Empire Tropical Cyclone History Most significantly, over 69,000 residential units were damaged, and thousands of New Yorkers were temporarily displaced. The storm resulted in the deaths of 44 City residents and inflicted an estimated $19 billion in damages and lost economic activity across the New York City. The City of New York’s preparation and immediate response to Hurricane Sandy was one of the largest mobilizations of public services in it’s history, and demonstrated the dedication of the City’s workforce and the perseverance of New Yorkers to recover and rebuild. Over the course of 48 hours, wind, rain, and water destroyed approximately 300 homes, left hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers without power, damaged critical public and private infrastructure, and left many New Yorkers vulnerable with limited access to food, drinking water, healthcare, and other critical services. Hurricane Sandy hit New York City on October 29, 2012.
