Faster doesn't always mean more dangerous! In 2017, Hurricane Harvey slowed to only 5 mph once it moved inland. This resulted in catastrophic flooding of more than 40 inches of rain in several areas over four days. Each landfall and movement inland slowed its intensity and allowed for this flooding to accumulate, which ultimately resulted in $125 billion in damage.  Conversely, in 2004, Hurricane Charley moved with a peak intensity of 150 mph. Though this hurricane still resulted in $16.9 billion in damage, it was much less severe than Harvey.     #HurricaneDamage #DisasterRestoration #RainbowRestoration #OnePropertyAtaTime
