Hurricane Fay (Skarmory's 2020)

Hurricane Fay was the strongest and most intense hurricane in the 2020 Atlantic hurricane season, as well as the deadliest and costliest. The 7th depression, 6th named storm, 4th hurricane and 1st major hurricane of the 2020 Atlantic hurricane season, Tropical Storm Fay formed from a tropical wave northwest of Cabo Verde on August 17. She moved west-northwestward, becoming Hurricane Fay on August 18. Continuing to strengthen, she became a C2 on August 19, before weakening back into a C1, then strengthening to a C2 again and becoming the first major hurricane of the season on August 21. She also started unusually moving west-southwestward. She did however continue strengthening, becoming a C4 on August 23 and reaching her peak on August 25 before weakening back down to a C3. She restrengthened into a C4 before landfall on Montserrat on August 28, 2020. She weakened past that, making a 2nd landfall on Puerto Rico as a C2 on August 30, and weakening even faster, dissipating on August 31, 2020.

Fay struck Montserrat and the general area as a category 4, causing over 5 billion combined in the non-Puerto Rico islands, with 3 billion coming in Montserrat. Death tolls came at 176 in Montserrat, 59 in Antigua & Barbuda, 38 in Guadeloupe and 87 in Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico took 1.8 billion dollars in damage. The total damages and deaths were 7 billion/360 fatalities. The Caribbean was not prepared for another hard hit after last season's Fernand, and that may have been the reason why damage tolls were so high. Puerto Rico was affected by the aftermentioned Fernand as well.
