caption_attribution_description: With maximum sustained winds approaching 125 mph (205 km/h), Hurricane Isidore is just skirting the coast of the Yucatan Peninsula. The eye is clearly visible in this image and has an approximate diameter of 20 nautical miles. Isidore is expected to continue on a westward path for the next 24 hours.
context_page_description: Tropical cyclones move into the contiguous United States from the Atlantic Ocean, the Gulf of Mexico, and the eastern Pacific Ocean. The highest rainfall totals in the country have been measured across the Gulf Coast and lower portions of the Eastern Seaboard. Intermediate amounts have been measured across the Southwest, New England, and the Midwest. The northern Great Plains and Pacific Northwest have received the lowest amounts, as those regions lie exceptionally far from the breeding grounds of Atlantic and Eastern Pacific tropical cyclones.
  The wettest tropical cyclone in the United States storm on record is Hurricane Harvey, which dumped 60.58 in of rain on Southeast Texas in 2017. Tropical Storm Claudette holds the national 24-hour rainfall record: 42.00 in in Alvin, Texas.
context_section_description: Indiana experienced its wettest tropical cyclone in 2008 with the arrival of Hurricane Ike. In 1979, Hurricane Bob produced considerable flooding in the state.
