Hurricane Kamille

Hurricane Kamille
Hurricane Kamille was a powerful and destructive tropical cyclone that devastated the city of Jumpsuit in October of 2000.

The system developed from a low in between two of Trench's peninsulas. The low made a south westerly track towards the city of Jumpsuit. The system underwent rapid intensification and soon received the name "Kamille." Kamille continued to move south/southwest until October 10, when it strengthened into a Category 4 storm.

Kamille made landfall later that day and moved back out to the open sea the following morning. Kamille left devastation all along it's path. Damages were estimated to be greater than $50 Billion at one point, however in a greater analysis, they were estimated at $24 Billion.

Along with all the damage, Kamille killed 44 people directly, and had a storm surge of 6 feet. This nearly put the whole southernmost peninsula of Trench underwater.

After Kamille went back into open waters, it turned north and weakened to a category 1 storm. The northernmost peninsula of Trench was put under a tropical storm watch, but Kamille dissipated before it got that far north. Thus, the watches were removed.
