The 1930 season was one of the least active seasons on record, with only two tropical cyclones known to have formed during the season. However, both reached hurricane strength. The first one grazed Bermuda as a Category 2. The other one was the most notable and one of the deadliest storms this century. A Category 4 slammed straight into Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. It unleashed torrential rainfall that caused flooding and landslides across Hispaniola. As many as 8,000 people died during the storm’s lifetime. Hispaniola still kept up its reputation as a hurricane killer. The storm went from a monstrous Category 4 to a pitiful tropical storm in the space of 24 hours as it was forced over the mountains. The tropical storm crossed Cuba and Florida and restrengthened into a respectable Category 2 hurricane before dissipating in the central Atlantic.
