| episode_narrative | Tropical Storm Hanna brought heavy rain, strong winds and some tidal flooding to the Eastern Shore during the day and into the evening of the 6th. Rain moved into the region during the morning, fell heavy at times from the late morning into the afternoon and ended during the evening. Storm totals ranged from around 1 to around 4 inches with the highest amounts in Cecil County. The strongest winds occurred during the morning and afternoon with peak gusts as high as 56 mph. Siding was ripped from a restaurant in Tilghman (Talbot County). About 10,000 homes and businesses lost power on the Delmarva Peninsula. All power was restored by the 7th. Tidal flooding occurred during the early evening as the surge averaged two to three feet and affected mainly Talbot and Caroline Counties. Many planned activities were cancelled. The Maryland Department of Natural Resources suspended camping at all of the Eastern Shore State Parks. Chesapeake College was closed. ||A limited state of emergency was declared because of Hanna. The eastbound lanes of the William Preston Lane Junior Memorial Bridge (Queen Anne's County) were closed during the morning of the 6th. It was reopened during the afternoon, but driving restrictions remained in place in both directions into the evening. The persistent strong winds knocked down several weak trees and limbs. This caused scattered power outages and a few road closures. The heavy rain caused a few road closures in Cecil County, although the majority of the closures were caused by tidal flooding farther south.||The tidal surge peaked prior to the high tide during the late afternoon and evening of the 6th. In Talbot County, in Oxford, Pier Street was flooded. The water was over the docks and bulkheads at Knapps Narrow. In St. Michaels, the tide reached into the parking lot of a restaurant off of Mill Street. Patrons were ferried in and out of the restaurant by pick-up truck. Southeast of Saint Michael's, the tide covered the deck of a restaurant off of Mulberry Street and totally closed North Harbour Road. In Easton, the Easton Point Marina became an island off of Port Street. In Caroline County, tidal flooding expanded into the Choptank River and flooded Crouse Park in Denton.||Peak wind gusts included 56 mph in Tilghman (Talbot County), 49 mph in Stevensville (Queen Anne's County), 42 mph in Tolchester (Kent County), 37 mph in Ridgely (Caroline County) and 36 mph in Elkton (Cecil County). Precipitation totals included 4.23 inches in Elkton (Cecil County), 3.81 inches in Fair Hill (Cecil County), 1.99 inches in American Corner (Caroline County), 1.80 inches in Church Hill (Queen Anne's County), 1.76 inches in Millington (Kent County), 1.61 inches in Denton (Caroline County) and 1.20 inches in Easton (Talbot County). ||The tide at Cambridge (Dorchester County) peaked at 4.36 feet above mean lower low water at 736 p.m. EDT on the 6th. Minor tidal flooding starts at 3.5 feet above mean lower low water and moderate tidal flooding starts at 4.5 feet above mean lower low water. The storm surge was estimated to reach 4 feet above normal in the Choptank River in Caroline County. The evening high tide at Tolchester Beach in Kent County crested at 3.1 feet above mean lower low water and failed to reach minor tidal flooding levels (3.5 feet above mean lower low water).||Tropical Storm Hanna made landfall at about 320 a.m. EDT on September 6th near the border of North and South Carolina. The tropical storm proceeded to move northeast. At 8 a.m. EDT, Hanna was near Goldsboro, North Carolina; at 11 a.m. EDT just southeast of Emporia, Virginia; at 2 p.m. EDT near Williamsburg, Virginia, at 5 p.m. EDT in Dorchester County, Maryland. Hanna cut across northwest Sussex County Delaware and entered Delaware Bay and made landfall in New Jersey close to 7 p.m. EDT in eastern Cumberland County. At 8 p.m. EDT Hanna was located in northern Atlantic County, New Jersey and exited the state near Island Beach State Park in Ocean County. At 11 p.m. EDT, Hanna was about to make landfall in western Suffolk County in New York State. Hanna continued to move northeast through eastern Long Island and New England overnight on the 6th. |
