This extratropical cyclone formed in relation to Hurricane Ida's remnant mid-level circulation across southeastern Georgia and moved east-northeast offshore North Carolina, before slowly dropping south and southeast over the succeeding several days.

[1] However, Ida's mid-level circulation led to the formation of a new low over southeastern Georgia, which eventually moved off the coast of North Carolina.

[5] Tracking parallel to the North Carolina coastline, the system eventually moved onshore near Cape Hatteras by November 13.

Due to the high-pressure system situated over Vermont, the low turned southeastward, bringing its center back over water.

[6] As the remnants of Ida began to weaken within the developing nor'easter on November 11, flood warnings were already in force from Alabama to Georgia and watches extended northward into the Mid-Atlantic states.

[12] Due to the location of the storm, south east of the Chesapeake Bay, persistent onshore flows brought elevated water levels to some areas for up to four days.

[2] Along the east coast of the United States, a nor'easter spawned by the remnants of Ida resulted in widespread damage along coastal areas.

[1] Minor damage was reported in South Carolina as winds up to 45 mph (70 km/h) and heavy rains, amounting to 3 to 5 in (76 to 127 mm) in most of the state, impacted the region.

[17] Along the Delmarva Peninsula, waves up to 10 ft (3.0 m) caused some coastal damage and high winds left roughly 13,000 without power.

Extensive sand loss was reported at numerous beaches, including 7 million cubic yards in Ocean City alone.

[13] Following the widespread flooding caused by the storm, a major disaster declaration was signed by President Barack Obama on December 9 to provide residents in Virginia with federal assistance.
