The Outstanding Storms of the Month section is prepared by the Data Operations Branch of the National Climatic Data Center. The Storm Data and Unusual Weather Phenomena narratives and Hurricane/Tropical Storm summaries are prepared by the National Weather Service. Monthly and annual statistics and summaries of tornado and lightning events resulting in deaths, injuries, and damage are compiled by cooperative efforts between the National Climatic Data Center and the Storm Prediction Center. STORM DATA contains all confirmed information on storms available to our staff at the time of publication. However, due to difficulties inherent in the collection of this type of data, it is not all-inclusive. Late reports and corrections are printed in each edition. Maps of the National Weather Service County Warning Areas which are used in the Storm Data and Unusual Weather Phenomena section will be printed in all editions. Except for limited editing to correct grammatical errors, materials submitted are generally published as received. Note: "None Reported" means that no severe weather occurred and "Not Received" means that no reports were received for this region at the time of printing. Subscription, pricing, and ordering information is available from: National Climatic Data Center 151 Patton Avenue Asheville, NC 28801 (828) 271-4800 or (828) CLIMATE The editors of STORM DATA solicits your help in acquiring photographs (prints or slides; black and white, or color), maps, clippings, etc. of significant or unusual weather events (past or present). These could be for use in the "Outstanding Storms of the Month'' section of STORM DATA. We request our subscribers or other interested persons to mail such items to: Stuart Hinson National Climatic Data Center 151 Patton Avenue Asheville, NC 28801 Any such items received by the editor will be for use in STORM DATA only. Any other use will be with the permission of the owner of said items. Materials submitted will be returned if requested in the original submission. "I certify that this is an official publication of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and is compiled from information received at the National Climatic Data Center Asheville, North Carolina 28801-2733." Thomas R. Karl Director, National Climatic Data Center 2 The Cyclone Track Map which usually appears on this page is not available for August 1998. Should the data become available in the future, a cyclone track map will be produced and printed in a subsequent issue. 3 August 1998 Confirmed Tornadoes 4 F Scale F0 F1 F2 F3 F4 F Scale F0 F1 F2 F3 F4 F5 Total Number 43 11 2 1 0 0 57 F5 OUTSTANDING STORMS OF THE MONTH 1. FLASH FLOOD IN SOUTH-CENTRAL TEXAS KILLS 14 AND INJURES HUNDREDS The remnants of once Tropical Storm Charley became nearly stationary early on August 23 as it moved over south-central Texas. Rainfall rates as high as 4 inches per hour resulted in flash flooding of low- lying areas. Flood waters forced hundreds of people using public campgrounds and recreational areas to seek higher ground. Later on the 23rd and into the 24th, another band of heavy rainfall caused additional flash flooding in Val Verde County. The San Felipe Creek overflowed its banks. Residents escaped the flood waters by climbing onto their rooftops to await rescue. Several law enforcement agencies conducted rescue efforts. One National Weather Service observing station in Del Rio, Texas (Del Rio 2NW) recorded almost 15 inches of rain in a 10-hour period on August 23. Most fatalities occurred when flood waters moved through a residential area and people could not reach safety in time. Local authorities who inspected the damage remarked that the aftermath was similar to an F5 tornado. Above Left: Several automobiles and trees washed downstream by rapidly moving water. Above Right: More debris can be seen along a washed-out road near a few remaining houses. Below Left: Although the bridge remains intact, the roadway near the bridge has been washed away. Below Right: Damage similar to this home was common to many homes along San Felipe Creek.

    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.

However, there have been few studies evaluating the simulated water levels and storm surge during a landfalling hurricane event over NYC-Long Island as well as verifying real-time storm surge forecasting systems for NYC-Long Island over a cool season. Hurricane Gloria was simulated using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) V2.1 model, in which different planetary boundary layer (PBL) and microphysics schemes were used to create an ensemble of hurricane landfalls over Long Island.
