Hurricane Sean (2017-2018)

Hurricane Sean was a extremely destructive hurricane that formed in December and lasted until the new year of January. Sean destroyed The Yucatan before destroying Florida.

Meteorological history
A tropical wave was found first by the NHC in the ocean. The wave looked large and disorganized first, but then it organized into Tropical Depression Nineteen on 19:00 UTC. Nineteen formed into Tropical Storm Sean moving west into the Lesser Antilles at 15 mph. Sean attained hurricane strength and started to rapidly intensify. Sean made landfall on December 19 on the Lesser Antilles as a C2 with winds up to 100 mph. Sean entered the Caribbean Sea and started to intensify into a major Category 3 storm moving westward at 5 mph. Sean entered low wind shear where hurricanes gain their strength. Sean rapidly intensified into a Category 5 hurricane and gained more strength. The NHC added another intensity, Category 6 for Sean. Sean made its first landfall in the Yucatan as a Category 6 hurricane. Sean weakened after crossing the Yucatan, but intensified back into a Category 6 hurricane and started to hurl towards Florida. Sean made landfall on Florida on December 24, thus ruining Christmas. Sean survived until January 6 of the new year where Sean dissipated

Preparations
Mexico issued a state of emergency for the Yucatan on December 18 and Florida governor Rick Scott issued a state of emergency on December 20. Both states were preparing like crazy.

Yucatan
The people in the Yucatan were ordered to evacuate this devastating storm. 87,938 people evacuated the storm while the others stayed in their home.

Florida
Still recovering from Irma, the Florida Governor ordered people to evacuate the storm and alot of Miami residents evacuated.
