How strong Hurricane Odalys got, and what that means
The map above shows the path, colored by hurricane category.
Odalys was a hurricane from Sep 26 to Sep 27.
Over the advisories we kept, the center moved about 220 miles, from 19.8N 123.7W toward the north to 22.8N 123.1W.
What a Category 2 hurricane can do: Extensive damage: major roof and siding damage to well-built homes, many trees down, and near-total power loss lasting several days to weeks. The Saffir-Simpson scale uses wind speed only; storm surge and rainfall flooding can be deadly in any hurricane.
Damage descriptions paraphrase the NHC Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Final damage, rainfall and casualty figures appear in the NHC Tropical Cyclone Report, usually published months after the season. Our record starts on Sep 26, after Odalys was already a named storm, so earlier history is not shown.
