Florence began as a disturbance but it gained strength and crossed the threshold from tropical storm to hurricane in a matter of days. Later, it became a fearsome Category 4 hurricane with winds of 130 mph. Although Florence made landfall near Wrightsville, North Carolina, slowed down, it caused heavy rainfall and devastating flooding.
