The hard fact was driven home, leaving no chance to rationalize. Another huge cyclonic storm, spawned in the subtropics, had come and gone. Banshee winds and massive tides had done their savage work once more. Another hurricane zeroed in upon the state, smashed down thousands of trees, ripped at roofs and roared impotently along the shores, its power impaired by an unfavorable high tide.
