Original Note:
NNN. At no point was Lothar a tropical storm or hurricane, which is what the post is about - a tropical hurricane going so far inland as to reach Germany via France. Lothar was a winter European windstorm, as the CN clearly states. NOT a hurricane or TS. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclone_Lothar https://www.swissre.com/risk-knowledge/mitigating-climate-risk/winter-storms-in-europe/storms-lothar-martin-wreak-havoc-across-europe.html https://wmo.int/topics/tropical-cyclone https://coast.noaa.gov/hurricanes/
