High Quality Content by wikipedia articles! Hurricane Dolly was a tropical cyclone that made landfall in extreme southern Texas in July 2008. Dolly was the fourth tropical cyclone and second hurricane to form during the 2008 Atlantic hurricane season. It was the first US landfalling hurricane of the 2008 season. Dolly developed on July 20 from an area of disturbed weather in association with a strong tropical wave. It was named Dolly at the same time it formed-skipping the tropical depression phase entirely as the precursor wave already had tropical storm-force winds. This marked the earliest time a fourth named cyclone has formed since the 2005 season, which holds the record. The tropical storm made landfall on the Yucatn Peninsula near Cancn early on July 21, leaving at least 17 people dead in Guatemala, and one person in the Yucatn.

Hurricane Dennis was an early-forming major hurricane in the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico during the very active 2005 Atlantic hurricane season. Dennis was the fourth named storm, second hurricane, and first major hurricane of the season. In July, the hurricane set several records for early season hurricane activity, becoming both the earliest formation of a fourth tropical cyclone and the strongest Atlantic hurricane ever to form before August; the lastly mentioned was a title it held for only six days before being surpassed by Hurricane Emily. Dennis hit Cuba twice as a Category 4 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale, and made landfall on the Florida Panhandle in the United States as a Category 3 storm less than a year after Hurricane Ivan did so. Dennis caused at least 89 deaths (42 direct) in the US and Caribbean and caused $2.23 billion (2005 US dollars) in damages to the United States, as well as an approximately equal amount of damage in the Caribbean, primarily on Cuba.

Excerpt: Season summary map The 1967 Atlantic hurricane season officially began on June 1, 1967, and lasted until November 30, 1967. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the Atlantic basin . The season was fairly average, with eight storms forming.Hurrica ne Beulah was the most notable Atlantic hurricane of 1967. A Category 5 hurricane , it killed 58 and did $217 million ( $1.2 billion in 2005 US dollars ) in damage as it crossed the Yucatn Peninsula and then made landfall a second time near the mouth of the Rio Grande .Storms Hurricane Arlene Category 1 hurricane (SSHS ) item Duration: August 28 September 4 item Intensity: 85 mph (140 km/h ) (1-min), 982 mbar (h Pa ) After a quiet start to the season, the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) became very active, with four separate areas of convection exiting the coast of Africa. The first, accompanied with a tropical wave, became a tropical depression on August 28 (the second became Beulah and the fourth became Chloe). The tropical depression moved west-northward, reaching tropical storm strength on the 30th. Arlene slowly strengthened over the following days, eventually reaching hurricane intensity on the 3rd over the north Atlantic. The next day, it weakened to a tropical storm and became extratropical. It was absorbed by a warm front, leaving behind a slow-moving frontal low.Hurricane Beulah Category 5 hurricane (SSHS ) item Duration: September 5 September 22...

High Quality Content by wikipedia articles! Mediterranean tropical cyclones are an extremely rare weather phenomenon. These systems are a subject of some debate within meteorological circles whether they closely fit the definition of tropical cyclones, subtropical cyclones, or polar lows. Their origins are typically non-tropical, and develop over open waters under strong, initially cold-core cyclones, similar to subtropical cyclones in the Atlantic Basin. Sea surface temperatures in late-August and early-September are quite high over the basin, though research indicates water temperatures of 20 C/68 F are normally required for development. Cold air aloft appears to be the main trigger for instability in the development of these systems. If a "hurricane season" were ever to be demarcated in the Mediterranean, it would extend from August through January, based upon occurrences so far. Meteorological literature documents other Mediterranean Hurricanes occurred in September 1947, September 1969, September 1973, August 1976, January 1982, September 1983, December 1984, December 1985, October 1994, January 1995, October 1996, September 1997, December 2005, September 2006.

Hurricane Katrina made landfall in Louisiana and Mississippi on August 29, 2005 causing one of the worst natural disasters in the history of the United States. Air and Army National Guardsmen from across the country, along with state and local emergency responders and members of the active duty armed forces, poured into the Gulf Coast region to participate in a massive humanitarian relief effort. The entry point for much of the National Guard's relief operations in Louisiana was the New Orleans Naval Air Station located immediately south of the Crescent City in the suburb of Belle Chasse. Beginning on September 1, 2005, Air National Guard C-130s and KC-135s airlifted equipment, supplies, food and military personnel into the airfield and began evacuating sick and injured civilians. Army National Guard helicopters and fixed wing aircraft also participated in relief operations from that installation. In addition to aircrews and planes, Air Guard rescue personnel and equipment as well as combat controllers, security forces, and civil engineering personnel deployed to Belle Chasse. They immediately began conducting rescue operations and building up the base infrastructure to support the huge influx of troops to the devastated Gulf Coast. Most of the National Guardsmen who deployed to the region, including those at the Naval Air Station, remained in state status under the legal control of their governors which enabled them to provide law enforcement support in affected areas when required. They deployed in accordance with Emergency Management Assistance Compacts that had been developed between many states well before Hurricane Katrina struck. By September 8, 2005, over 51000 National Guardsmen were helping people along the Gulf Coast deal with the terrible devastation inflicted on them by Hurricane Katrina, making this the largest deployment for a domestic emergency in the history of the National Guard. Hurricane Katrina of the 2005 Atlantic hurricane season was the costliest natural disaster, as well as one of the five deadliest hurricanes, in the history of the United States.A2A Among recorded Atlantic hurricanes, it was the sixth strongest overall. At least 1836 people lost their lives in the actual hurricane and in the subsequent floods, making it the deadliest US hurricane since the 1928 Okeechobee hurricane; total property damage was estimated at $81 billion (2005 USD),A2A nearly triple the damage wrought by Hurricane Andrew in 1992.A3A Hurricane Katrina formed over the Bahamas on August 23, 2005 and crossed southern Florida as a moderate Category 1 hurricane, causing some deaths and flooding there before strengthening rapidly in the Gulf of Mexico. The storm weakened before making its second landfall as a Category 3 storm on the morning of Monday, August 29 in southeast Louisiana. It caused severe destruction along the Gulf coast from central Florida to Texas, much of it due to the storm surge. The most severe loss of life occurred in New Orleans, Louisiana, which flooded as the levee system catastrophicall y failed, in many cases hours after the storm had moved inland.A4A Eventually 80% of the city and large tracts of neighboring parishes became flooded, and the floodwaters lingered for weeks.A4A However, the worst property damage occurred in coastal areas, such as all Mississippi beachfront towns, which were flooded over 90% in hours, as boats and casino barges rammed buildings, pushing cars and houses inland, with waters reaching 612 miles (1019 km) from the beach. The hurricane protection failures in New Orleans prompted a lawsuit against the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), the builders of the levee system as mandated in the Flood Control Act of 1965. Responsibility for the failures and flooding was laid squarely on the Army Corps in January 2008, but the federal agency could not be held financially liable due to sovereign immunity in the Flood Control Act of 1928. There was also an investigation of the responses from federal, state and local governments, resulting in the resignation of Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) director Michael D. Brown, and of New Orleans Police Department (NOPD) Superintendent Eddie Compass. Conversely, the United States Coast Guard (USCG), National Hurricane Center (NHC) and National Weather Service (NWS) were widely commended for their actions, accurate forecasts and abundant lead time.A5A Five years later, thousands of displaced residents in Mississippi and Louisiana are still living in temporary accommodation. Reconstruction of each section of the southern portion of Louisiana has been addressed in the Army Corps LACPR Final Technical Report which identifies areas not to be rebuilt and areas and buildings that need to be elevated.A6A

Excerpt: Track map of all storms during the season The 1982 Atlantic hurricane season was an inactive Atlantic hurricane season, during which five tropical cyclones formed. The season officially began on June 1, 1982 and ended on November 30, dates which conventionally limit the period of each year when tropical cyclones tend to form in the Atlantic. However, most of the activity was constrained to the month of September. This timeline documents tropical cyclone formations, strengthening, weakening, landfalls , extratropical transitions , as well as dissipations during the season. The timeline also includes information which was not operationally released, meaning that information from post-storm reviews by the National Hurricane Center , such as information on a storm that was not operationally warned upon.

Hurricane Andrew was the last and third most powerful of three Category 5 hurricanes to make landfall in the United States during the 20th century, after the Labor Day Hurricane of 1935 and Hurricane Camille in 1969. Andrew caused 65 deaths. Andrew was the first named storm and only major hurricane of the otherwise inactive 1992 Atlantic hurricane season. During Andrew's duration it struck the northwestern Bahamas, southern Florida at Homestead (south of Miami), and southwest Louisiana around Morgan City in August. Andrew caused $26.5 billion in damage ($38.1 billion in 2006 US dollars), with most of that damage cost in south Florida, although other sources put damage between $27 billion to $34 billion in total costs. Its central pressure ranks as fourth-lowest in US landfall records and Andrew was the costliest Atlantic hurricane in US history until surpassed by Hurricane Katrina of the 2005 season. It was also the first of two Category 4 or higher storms to strike the United States that year (Hurricane Iniki in the Central Pacific struck Hawaii a couple of weeks later).

Excerpt: Subtropical Storm Andrea was the first named storm and first subtropical cyclone of the 2007 Atlantic hurricane season. It developed out of a previously non-tropical low on May 9 about 150 miles (240 km) northeast of Daytona Beach, Florida, three weeks before the official start of the season. After encountering dry air and increased vertical wind shear, Andrea weakened to a subtropical depression on May 10 while remaining nearly stationary, and early on May 11 the National Hurricane Center discontinued advisories. Andrea was the first pre-season storm to develop since Tropical Storm Ana in April 2003. Additionally, the storm was the first Atlantic named storm in May since Tropical Storm Arlene in 1981. The storm produced rough surf along the coastline from Florida to North Carolina, causing beach erosion and some damage. In some areas, the waves eroded up to 20 feet (6 m) of beach, leaving 70 homes in imminent danger of collapse. Offshore of North Carolina, high waves of 34 feet (10 m) and tropical-storm- force winds damaged three boat... More:

Excerpt: Season summary map The 1999 Atlantic hurricane season officially began on June 1, 1999, and lasted until November 30, 1999. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the Atlantic basin . The 1999 season set a record by having five storms reach Category 4 strength, which was later tied by the 2005 season. Hurricane Floyd was the deadliest United States hurricane since Hurricane Agnes in 1972, killing 57 people and causing billions in damage as it moved northward along the Atlantic coast. Hurricane Lenny killed 17 as it tracked eastward across the Caribbean , the first hurricane known to do so for an extended time. Lenny, reaching peak winds of 155 mph (249 km/h) just 13 days before the end of the season, was the strongest Atlantic hurricane in the month of November. The deadliest storm of the season by far, however, was a weak tropical depression in October that caused devastating floods in Mexico.
