This one formed quickly and made landfall at the Belize Mexico border.	Easternmost forming July storm on record. Longest lived July storm. Longest lived storm in the Atlantic basin since Ivan in '04 .
Skirted the Carolinas Coasts dropping heavy rains.	Intensified before landfall, at South Padre Island, just North of the Texas/Mexico border.
Dropped lots of rain in Texas and a good deal in Louisiana too.	Rain caused flooding in nearly a quarter of the U.S. and took dozens of lives in her path.
Over 80 lives were lost in this storm's passage. The Gulf Coast took a big hit, but it could have been much worse.	This one was a fish storm that never threatened land areas. That's a good thing.

This One Was A Fish Storm, Too. This One Was A Fish Storm. Surprising Everybody By Making Hurricane Strength, It Put At Least 100,000 People Out Of Power While Breaking The Record For The Quickest Near Landfall Depression To Hurricane Intensification. Much Needed Rain Soaked Parts Of Coastal NC With A Little Flooding. It Went From Depression To A CAT5 In Less Than 2 Days, Then Set A Record... The First Time For Two CAT 5 Landfalls In A Single Season. He Made It To Cat 5, But The Impacts Could Have Been Much Worse. The Track Was The Key. Erin's Flooding Was Deadly. ALL Tropical systems can kill! Erin caused a similar number of deaths in the U.S. as a Tropical Depression (and the remnants thereof) that Dean killed as a major hurricane along it's entire path. 2006 Storm Archives click a storm name
