A matching narrative was not found in the historical Storm Data Publication. Currently this system has matches for events from 1959 to 1993. However, the process to extract text from the publications is complex and there are many records which cannot be matched, particularly for older data. Please refer to the original publication, which may contain additional information on this event.
