Tuesday, September 22, 1992 · 12:00 PM – 12:00 PM

Tropical Storm Danielle was a strong tropical storm that made landfall on Virginia in the 1992 Atlantic hurricane season. The fourth storm of the season, Danielle was one of two tropical cyclones in the year to make landfall in the United States, the other being Hurricane Andrew. It formed out of a stationary trough of low pressure on September 18 near the coast of North Carolina. The system quickly reached tropical storm status, and Danielle looped to the west due to a change in steering currents. Tropical Storm Danielle reached a peak of 65 mph (105 km/h) winds before weakening and hitting the Delmarva Peninsula. The storm quickly dissipated over land. Tropical Storm: peak winds of 65 mph (55 knots), lowest pressure 1001 mb. September 22 – September 26, 1992. Landfall: September 25 at 65 mph, 37.8°N 75.5°W. Accumulated cyclone energy: 2.9.
