The final storm of the season, Laura, formed on November 12 in the western Caribbean Sea, and reached winds of 70 mph (120 km/h) as it approached western Cuba.[4] Across the island, the storm produced heavy rainfall, peaking at 32.5 in (830 mm).[43] The resulting flooding killed one person and caused crop damage, and also forced 26,000 people to evacuate their homes.[44] Initially, Laura was forecast to move across the island and impact the southern United States, but it executed a small loop and turned to the southwest. The storm moved ashore on Belize,[4] one of only four November storms to affect the country.[45] Little impact occurred during Laura's final landfall, and it dissipated on November 22 over central Guatemala.[4] Laura had the second highest accumulated cyclone energy (ACE) of any Atlantic tropical cyclone that did not attain hurricane status behind a tropical storm in 1913.[46][47]
