    State of New Jersey 2014 Hazard Mitigation Plan Section 5. Risk Assessment 5.8 Hurricane and Tropical Storm 2014 Plan Update Changes The 2014 Plan Update includes tropical storms, hurricanes and storm surge in this hazard profile. In the 2011 HMP, storm surge was included in the flood hazard. The hazard profile has been significantly enhanced to include a detailed hazard description, location, extent, previous occurrences, probability of future occurrence, severity, warning time and secondary impacts. New and updated data and figures from ONJSC are incorporated. New and updated figures from other federal and state agencies are incorporated. Potential change in climate and its impacts on the flood hazard are discussed. The vulnerability assessment now directly follows the hazard profile. An exposure analysis of the population, general building stock, State-owned and leased buildings, critical facilities and infrastructure was conducted using best available SLOSH and storm surge data. Environmental impacts is a new subsection. 5.8.1 Profile Hazard Description A tropical cyclone is a rotating, organized system of clouds and thunderstorms that originates over tropical or sub-tropical waters and has a closed low-level circulation. Tropical depressions, tropical storms, and hurricanes are all considered tropical cyclones. These storms rotate counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere around the center and are accompanied by heavy rain and strong winds (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration [NOAA] 2013a). Almost all tropical storms and hurricanes in the Atlantic basin (which includes the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea) form between June 1 and November 30 (hurricane season). August and September are peak months for hurricane development.

  • Hurricane & Tropical Storm
    5.8 HURRICANE & TROPICAL STORM SECTION 5.8 HURRICANE AND TROPICAL STORM 5.8.1 HAZARD DESCRIPTION A tropical cyclone is a rotating, organized system of clouds and thunderstorms that originates over tropical or sub-tropical waters and has a closed low-level circulation. Tropical depressions, tropical storms, and hurricanes are all considered tropical cyclones. These storms rotate counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere around the center and are accompanied by heavy rain and strong winds (NOAA, 2013). Almost all tropical storms and hurricanes in the Atlantic basin (which includes the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea) form between June 1 and November 30 (hurricane season). August and September are peak months for hurricane development. The average wind speeds for tropical storms and hurricanes are listed below: . A tropical depression has a maximum sustained wind speeds of 38 miles per hour (mph) or less . A tropical storm has maximum sustained wind speeds of 39 to 73 mph . A hurricane has maximum sustained wind speeds of 74 mph or higher. In the western North Pacific, hurricanes are called typhoons; similar storms in the Indian Ocean and South Pacific Ocean are called cyclones. A major hurricane has maximum sustained wind speeds of 111 mph or higher (NOAA, 2013). Over a two-year period, the United States coastline is struck by an average of three hurricanes, one of which is classified as a major hurricane. Hurricanes, tropical storms, and tropical depressions may pose a threat to life and property. These storms bring heavy rain, storm surge and flooding (NOAA, 2013). The cooler waters off the coast of New Jersey can serve to diminish the energy of storms that have traveled up the eastern seaboard.

  • Hazard Mitigation Plan Final 2020
    This plan integrates the following: Hazard Mitigation Plan Update (FEMA) Community Wildfire Protection Plan (DNCR) November 5, 2020 Final Prepared for the Town of Greenfield and NH Homeland Security & Emergency Management By The Greenfield Planning Team With assistance from Mapping and Planning Solutions Greenfield Hazard Mitigation Plan Update 2020 “Plans are worthless, but planning is everything. There is a very great distinction because when you are planning for an emergency you must start with this one thing: The very definition of "emergency" is that it is unexpected, therefore it is not going to happen the way you are planning.” -Dwight D. Eisenhower HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN DEFINITIONS ”A natural hazard is a source of harm or difficulty created by a meteorological, environmental, or geological event.” “Hazard mitigation is any sustained action taken to reduce or eliminate the long-term risk to human life and property from hazards (44CFR 201.2). Hazard mitigation activities may be implemented prior to, during, or after an event. However, it has been demonstrated that hazard mitigation is most effective when based on an inclusive, comprehensive, long-term plan that is developed before a disaster occurs.” (Source: Local Mitigation Plan Review Guide, FEMA, October 1, 2011) Plan Prepared and Authored By June E.

  • Volume I: Overview, Summary, and Application
    New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection Baseline Studies Final Report Volume I: Overview, Summary, and Application Geo-Marine, Inc. 2201 K Avenue, Suite A2 Plano, Texas 75074 July 2010 JULY 2010 NJDEP EBS FINAL REPORT: VOLUME I EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The State of New Jersey is committed to finding long-term energy solutions and is pursuing alternative energy options. Offshore wind may provide a solution to New Jersey’s long-term energy needs. There are limited data and information on the natural resources and their environment occurring in New Jersey’s offshore waters, specifically the region being considered for wind turbine development. Geo-Marine, Inc. (GMI) was contracted to conduct a scientific baseline study by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) Office of Science to fill major data gaps for birds, sea turtles, marine mammals, and other natural resources and their environments found in the Study Area. The objective of this study was to conduct baseline studies in waters off New Jersey’s coast to determine the current distribution and usage of this area by ecological resources. The goal was to provide GIS and digital spatial and temporal data on various species utilizing these offshore waters to assist in determining potential areas for offshore wind power development. The scope of work includes the collection of data on the distribution, abundance and migratory patterns of avian, marine mammal, sea turtle and other species in the study area over a 24-month period. These data, as well as existing (historical) data, were compiled and entered into digital format and geographic information system (GIS)-compatible electronic files.

  • Mirror Lake Hosts a Private Seaplane Base in Tuftonboro
    Vol XXII, No. 4 A Quarterly Newsletter Published by the Tuftonboro Association Fall, 2020 Mirror Lake hosts a private seaplane base in Tuftonboro If you live on Mirror Lake you have undoubtedly seen the lovely red and white 1956 Cessna 180 amphibious float, also known as a seaplane, take off and land. T.R. Wood, a Kingswood High School graduate and his family moved to the Tuftonboro side of Mirror Lake years ago seeking a slower pace after decades on Lake Winnipesaukee. T.R. is a third-generation pilot and his near-teenage son is well on his way to becoming the fourth generation in the air. T.R. is quite proud that his son already exhibits some of the skills of older, more experienced pilots. The family has a long history with planes starting with T.R.’s grandfather who flew Consolidated PBY Catalinas during WW II as he patrolled the Atlantic and Caribbean searching for submarines. His pilot skills were also in use throughout the Korean War. Both T.R. and his father, Tom Wood, have been commercial pilots. The history of flight in popular literature began with the Wright brothers’ famous exploit on December 17, 1903 four miles south of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. Seven years later Henri Fabre piloted the first seaplane in Marseilles, France. By 1911, Glenn Curtiss, the founder of the U.S. aircraft industry, had developed the Curtiss Model D. His Model H series T.R. Wood’s fiance Alison, along with their dog Champ, are perched on the pontoon was heavily used by the British Royal Navy during of T.R.’s 1956 Cessna, which in other seasons may wear wheels or wheels with skiis.

  • Climatology of Tropical Cyclones in New England and Their Impact at the Blue Hill Observatory, 1851-2012
    Climatology of Tropical Cyclones in New England and Their Impact at the Blue Hill Observatory, 1851-2012 Michael J. Iacono Blue Hill Meteorological Observatory Updated September 2013 Introduction Over the past four centuries, extreme hurricanes have occurred in New England at intervals of roughly 150 years, as evidenced by the three powerful storms of 1635, 1815, and 1938. Histories and personal accounts of these infamous hurricanes make for fascinating reading (Ludlum, 1963; Minsinger, 1988), and they serve as an important reminder of the devastating impact that tropical cyclones can have in the Northeast. Most tropical systems in New England are less damaging, but they can still disrupt our daily lives with strong winds, heavy rain, and flooding. This article, which updates an earlier report in the Blue Hill Observatory Bulletin (Iacono, 2001), will describe the climatology of all 250 tropical cyclones that have affected New England since the mid-19th century and will summarize their intensity, frequency, and specific meteorological impact at the Blue Hill Observatory. A hurricane is a self-sustaining atmospheric process in which sunlight, water, and wind combine to transfer energy from the tropics to higher latitudes. The uneven distribution of solar heating at the Earth’s surface ultimately drives much of our weather as the atmosphere continually circulates to equalize the tropical warmth and the polar cold. In the tropics, this process is normally tranquil and slow, brought about through the life cycles of individual thunderstorms, the prevailing winds, and ocean currents. However, under the right conditions very warm air and water in the tropics trigger the formation of the most efficient heat transfer mechanism available to the atmosphere: a hurricane.
