BOMB CYCLONE causes ABSURD FLOODING and a tornado from the Carolinas to New England

  • A bomb cyclone would intensify from the Gulf of Mexico, across northern Florida, and along the coastline of the Carolinas, leading to a FIRE HOSE of storms that dumped over a foot of rainfall north of Charleston, SC. A rare flash flood emergency was issued for Georgetown, and of course, Team Dominator was on the scene. A confirmed #tornado hit the north side of Myrtle Beach on the leading edge of this squall line and caused some substantial damage. I nearly intercepted this tornado, but I fell behind along Highway 17 just south of Myrtle Beach.
    This nor'easter then roared through the Northeast today with life threatening flash flooding, storm surge, but very little snow on the backside. This is a textbook #ElNino - themed storm system with an active southern branch of the jet stream, and the northern branch way up in Canada.

    Very incredible video. Hope the people are okay. I live in Florida and me and my family we're grateful that this storm wasn't as bad as it was then. It could have been worse. Stay safe, Reed and never stop chasing!

    Having spent the majority of my life within 25 miles of the New England coast I’ve experienced many a noreaster bomb cyclone. Usually resulting in blizzard conditions this time of year. I’m living in NC now and I’m almost 200 miles from the coast by choice. I was fortunate to live in areas that seldom flooded and never severely. Many of those coastal areas flood every year at least once.

    This thing was such a bizarre storm. Granted, the fronts of extratropical cyclones do strike Florida, I mean look at the size of those things. However, for the low-pressure core of this extratropical cyclone to form in the gulf in a manner usually seen in tropical systems, traverse directly through Florida, and then explode as it moves through the Carolinas is not something we see too often. I've sat through plenty of tropical depressions and tropical cyclones living here in Florida and I can tell you, this felt like a "cold" tropical depression. The same torrential rain, storm surges, and winds expected in a tropical storm, except it was chilly rather than hot.

    Crazy how i was only a few counties west of all that and we had consistent rain all day sunday and a good bit of wind mainly small to medium debris but it sure was a soaker . The east coast of the Carolinas don't like a lot rain because it will usually always flood . A friend of mine just sold his wrecker down there and the guy was running tows left and right and wanted to buy his other wrecker as well . Multimillion dollar homes flooded out my friend came back from there today and said it was all messed up from the flood . Never heard anything about the weather until my friend said something and noticed reeds notification. Didnt hear anything locally from the news go figure .

    Great video. I have to say though that I live in New England. And when we're told a huge storm is coming we do what rational New Englanders do and go and loot the grocery stores for bread and milk...and then hunker down til it's over. The middle of a flood and a huge storm is NOT the time to decide you need dog food.
