Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA powerful nor'easter produced rain and strong to high winds across Kent and Sussex Counties from the 11th through the 14th. While rain began falling on the 11th, the heaviest rain fell from the 12th into the first half of the 13th. The rain ended on the 14th. Event precipitation totals averaged 2.5 to 4.5 inches and produced some poor drainage and low lying area flooding. Runoff from streams, creeks and rivers were slowed by the higher than normal tides. This included the Nanticoke River. In Kent County, some roadway flooding was reported in Frederica. The entrance to the Dover Public Library flooded.||Event precipitation totals included 4.62 inches in Greenwood (Sussex County), 4.57 inches in Georgetown (Sussex County), 4.40 inches in Seaford (Sussex County), 4.29 inches in Delmar (Sussex County), 3.23 inches in Dover (Kent County), 3.08 inches in Smyrna (Kent County), 2.89 inches in Marydel (Kent County) and 2.12 inches in Lewes (Sussex County).| |The nor'easter was originally Hurricane Ida, which made landfall in Alabama on the morning of the 10th. As Ida made landfall, it lost tropical characteristics and transformed into an extratropical low pressure system. On the morning of November 11th, the low pressure system reached southern Georgia and the next morning (12th) it was located over the coastal waters east of Wilmington, North Carolina. The extratropical low pressure system reached its maximum strength of around 995 millibars during the evening of the 12th as it was located just off of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina. From there, the low pressure system slowly drifted off the North Carolina coast as it slowly weakened on the 13th and 14th.
