Agnes began as a tropical disturbance off the coast of the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico on 14 June 1972. As the disturbance moved northward, it strengthened and became a tropical storm on 16 June.

Hurricane AgnesBy 19 June, Agnes became a hurricane. Agnes made initial landfall along the Florida pan handle on 19 June. Agnes then proceeded through Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina before she moved back over the Atlantic off the North Carolina coast on 21 June,

After regaining strength over the Atlantic, she made landfall again over southeastern New York on 22 June and moved westward in an arc over southern New York into north-central Pennsylvania. She became nearly stationary over Pennsylvania by morning of 23 June, but was soon absorbed by a low-pressure system that slowly drifted northeastward from Pennsylvania into New York.(Relatted Video)
