Tropical Omniscriptum Tropical Storm Norma (1970) Paperback

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Tropical Storm Norma was the fourteenth named tropical cyclone of the 1970 Pacific hurricane season. The storm formed off the coast of Mexico and intensified rapidly, peaking as a strong tropical storm on September 3 before starting a weakening trend which saw it dissipate before making landfall on Baja California. While the storm never made landfall, the remnants from the storm fueled the Labor Day Storm of 1970, which caused floods in Arizona that resulted in heavy damage and loss of life. The rainfall from this storm broke records, mostly for 24 hour rainfall totals. Despite not being tropical when the damages were done, Norma is considered to be the deadliest system in Arizona history. Despite the damage and loss of life in Arizona, the name Norma was not retired. The name remains in use today and was most recently used in 2005 and is set for use next in 2011.
