INTRODUCTION The goal of this study is to, when feasible Understanding of cyclone structural evolution within the ERA40 data, extend and refine the structural both during and beyond the tropical stage has increased characteristics of existing best-track cyclones. These tremendously over the past fifty years through various refinements may include the tropical or extratropical satellite-based, model-based, and analysis-based transition points in the lifecycle or the genesis point of classifications. This new knowledge has brought tropical cyclones that formed from cold-core origins. forward the reanalysis of historical storms in the context Finally, through a detailed examination of the full 45 of present understanding (Landsea et al. 2004) in order years, several cyclones were found of warm-core or to extend and revise the National Hurricane Center’s hybrid structure that may qualify for subtropical or (NHC) North Atlantic hurricane database (HURDAT; tropical status, but were not documented within the Neumann et al. 1993).

Stable water isotopes are powerful indicators of meteorological processes on a broad range of scales, reflecting evap- oration, condensation, and airmass mixing processes. With the recent advent of fast laser-based spectroscopic methods it has become possible to measure the stable isotopic composition of atmospheric water vapour in situ at high temporal resolution, enabling to tremendously extend the measurement data base in space and time. Here we present the first set of airborne spectro- 5 scopic stable water isotopes measurements over the western Mediterranean. Measurements have been acquired by a customised Picarro L2130-i cavity-ring down spectrometer deployed onboard of the Dornier 128 D-IBUF aircraft together with a meteoro- logical flux measurement package during the HyMeX SOP1 field campaign in Corsica, France during September and October 2012.

  • The Hurricane Season of 1966 Arnold L
    March 1967 Arnold L. Sugg 131 THE HURRICANE SEASON OF 1966 ARNOLD L. SUGG* National Hurricane Center, US. Weather Bureau Office, Miami, Florida I 1. GENERAL SUMMARY ward in the United States in September (Green [4]), but The 1966 hurricane season began early and ended late. While the number of storms was only slightly above normal, hurricane days totalled 50, well above the yearly average of 33 and the second highest of record tabulated since 1954 (table 1). Hurricane days for June and November exceeded the previous 12-y ear totals. Except for a late May-early June hurricane in 1825, Alma, the first tropical cyclone of the 1966 season, made landfall in the United States earlier in the season than any other hurricane of record. Faith and Inez were tracked over very long distances (fig. 1). The 65 advisories on Inez were the most ever issued for a hurricane and the total of 151 bulletins and advisories also exceeded previous advices on a hurricane. The unusual path of Inez made her the first single storm of record to affect the West Indies, the Bahamas, Florida, and Mexico. She was also the first of record, so late in the season, to cross the entire Gulf of Mexico without recurvature. The season continued active through July. Since 1871, there have been only thee other years when the fifth tropica.1 cyclone developed as early as July. These were 1933 (fifth tropical cyclone on July 25, total of 21 cyclones), 1936 (July 27, 16 cyclones), and 1959 (July 22, 11 cyclones). According to Wagner [14], the June 700-mb.

Introduction Hurricanes form in the tropical zone of the Atlantic Ocean but their impact is not confined to this zone. Many hurricanes stray well away from the tropics and even a small number have an impact on the weather of Western Europe, mostly in the form of high wind and rainfall events. It must be noted that at this stage they are no longer true hurricanes as they do not have the high wind speeds and low barometric pressures associated with true hurricanes. Their effects on the weather of Western Europe has yet to be fully explored, as they form a very small component of the overall weather patterns and only occur very episodically with some years having several events and other years having none.

    3 The Impact of Hurricanes on the Weather of Western Europe Dr. Kieran Hickey Department of Geography National University of Ireland, Galway Galway city Rep. of Ireland 1. Introduction Hurricanes form in the tropical zone of the Atlantic Ocean but their impact is not confined to this zone. Many hurricanes stray well away from the tropics and even a small number have an impact on the weather of Western Europe, mostly in the form of high wind and rainfall events. It must be noted that at this stage they are no longer true hurricanes as they do not have the high wind speeds and low barometric pressures associated with true hurricanes. Their effects on the weather of Western Europe has yet to be fully explored, as they form a very small component of the overall weather patterns and only occur very episodically with some years having several events and other years having none. This chapter seeks to identify and analyse the impact of the tail-end of hurricanes on the weather of Western Europe since 1960. The chapter will explore the characteristics and pathways of the hurricanes that have affected Western Europe and will also examine the weather conditions they have produced and give some assessment of their impact. In this context 23 events have been identified of which 21 originated as hurricanes and two as tropical storms (NOAA, 2010).

  • Hurricanes - General Information for Bermuda Prepared by the Bermuda Weather Service – Updated August 2021
    Hurricanes - General Information for Bermuda Prepared by the Bermuda Weather Service – updated August 2021 Hurricanes and tropical storms have had an impact on Bermuda from its earliest times. The initial colonization of Bermuda was a direct result of a hurricane in 1609 in which an English ship the "Sea Venture" ran aground. A study of local records from 1609 to the present day, of storm damage through the years indicates a damaging storm once every 6 to 7 years until the 21st century. Since 2000, an uptick in Bermuda-relevant tropical cyclones (TCs) has been noted in the record, and highlighted in the academic literature. The long-term effects of climate change on the variability of Bermuda TCs are an area of active research. However, recent studies indicate that increasing upper ocean temperatures near Bermuda are contributing to increased trends in TC activity locally. Hurricane season in the Atlantic is June through November, however Bermuda has seen subtropical storm activity as early as April (e.g. 2003 Ana), and has occasionally experienced tropical cyclone activity through November. Bermuda is 54 square kilometres (21 sq. miles) in area, located approximately at 32.3°N 64.7°W. Despite being out of the main TC development region of the tropical Atlantic, as well as being a ‘small target’, Bermuda has received a number of notable TC impacts in the last 20 years.
