Philippe was a tropical storm located in the Atlantic basin.
Philippe formed as a tropical wave on Sept. 15 near West Africa. Philippe slowly strengthened from Sept. 15 to Sept. 26, and it stalled in growth on Sept. 28.
After a long period of intensification, Philippe brought heavy rainfall to Bermuda on Oct. 6. Bermuda saw heavy rain and winds from Philippe’s tear through the region.
Philippe then lost strength and moved towards New England and Canada as a post-tropical cyclone. Five inches of rain were forecasted in New York and parts of New England.
