It wasn't the Labor Day weekend many East Coast residents andvisitors had planned.

After slamming into Florida as a Category 1 hurricane earlyFriday, Hermine churned up the eastern seaboard with heavyrain, high winds and flooding.

On Sunday, Hermine was technically a post-tropical cyclone offthe shores of Long Island, New York, and Ocean City, Maryland,according to the National WeatherService.

Flooding is biggest concern

Much of the damage expected from Hermine will be caused byflooding because of the storm surge and heavy precipitation,according to catastrophe modeling firm AIRWorldwide. On Sunday, coastal communities in at least sixstates were under the threat of flooding.

Officials have attributed two deaths — one in Florida andanother in North Carolina — to the storm.

Hermine strengthened slightly on Sunday, with sustained winds of70 miles per hour, and the hurricane center said it was “expectedto be at or near hurricane strength” through Tuesday, according tothe New York Times.

Insured losses likely to reach $500 million

Insured losses from Hermine will likely approach $500 million,with total economic damages close to $1 billion, according to anearly estimate from the catastrophe loss estimation and riskmanagement experts at Karen Clark& Company (KCC).

According to KCC, the storm is likely to produce over 50,000claims, primarily to residential properties and autos, and spreadacross the states of Florida, Georgia, North Carolina and SouthCarolina.
