Zelinsky National Hurricane Center 9 May 20181 NASA TERRA MODIS INFRARED IMAGE OF Harvey AT 0419 UTC 26 AUGUST 2017 JUST AFTER LANDFALL AS A CATEGORY 4 Hurricane IN TEXAS. IMAGE COURTESY OF UW/CIMSS. Harvey started as a typical weak August tropical storm that affected the Lesser Antilles and dissipated over the central Caribbean Sea. However, after re-forming over the Bay of Campeche, Harvey rapidly intensified into a category 4 Hurricane (on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane wind Scale) before making landfall along the middle Texas coast. The storm then stalled, with its center over or near the Texas coast for four days, dropping historic amounts of rainfall of more than 60 inches over southeastern Texas. These rains caused catastrophic flooding, and Harvey is the second-most costly Hurricane in history, after accounting for inflation, behind only Katrina (2005).
