In the Bahamas, where winds reached 104&#160;mph (167&#160;km/h), the storm killed three people. The city of <a href="/wiki/Nassau,_The_Bahamas" title="Nassau, The Bahamas">Nassau</a> was struck particularly hard. In Florida, damage was relatively severe, and included the deaths of several people. High winds brought down trees and power lines, though the storm was characterized by highly unusual rainfall patterns. In the <a href="/wiki/Everglades" title="Everglades">Everglades</a> region, a <a href="/wiki/Storm_surge" title="Storm surge">storm surge</a> flooded local streets. As the storm progressed northward, the city of <a href="/wiki/Tallahassee,_Florida" title="Tallahassee, Florida">Tallahassee</a> suffered widespread power outages and damage to numerous vehicles. Throughout the state, the hurricane inflicted US$675,000 ($14&#160;million 2011 USD) in damage. The cyclone later killed one person in Georgia. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Meteorological_history">Meteorological history</h2><span
