Several days later, the low-pressure system crossed into the South China Sea. As the storm progressed northwestward along the southern edge of a mid-level subtropical ridge, it intensified into a tropical storm and was named Prapiroon by the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) around 00:00 UTC on July 21. However, a few hours later, wind shear ...
Early on November 9, Nicole reached its initial peak intensity with sustained winds 70 mph (110 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 984 mbar (hPa; 29.06 inHg). [1] Strengthening was then halted when mid- to upper-level dry air entrained into the core of Nicole, disrupting the central convection and briefly weakening the storm as it ...
0.5 mi (0.80 km) 10 yd (9.1 m) A brief tornado impacted a mobile home park, lofting several trailers in the process. Four were destroyed, including one thrown 75 yd (69 m) onto a telephone pole and another onto a neighboring structure. One person was injured in the latter of these incidents. [5]
Although it was strengthening, QuikSCAT suggested that the low-level circulation was falling apart, as it appeared to be merging with the cold front. [85] At 0000 UTC on October 21, Nadine attained its peak intensity with winds of 60 mph (95 km/h) and a minimum barometric pressure of 999 mbar (29.5 inHg). [83]
The cyclone peaked in strength as a Category 1 hurricane on the Saffir–Simpson scale (SSHWS), with maximum sustained winds of 85 mph (140 km/h) and a central pressure of 981 mbar (hPa; 28.97 inHg). Alex weakened to a high-end tropical storm before making landfall on Terceira Island on January 15.
A flight into the storm late on August 16 indicated a pressure of 947 mbar (28.0 inHg) with winds of 140 mph (230 km/h) early on August 16. Originally winds were thought to be higher in Cleo, at 160 mph (260 km/h), which would make it a Category 5 hurricane, but reanalysis later on determined it to be weaker.
On September 5 the NHC upgraded the depression to Tropical Storm Isidore. Subsequently, it intensified at a faster rate, becoming a hurricane on September 6. The following day, satellite estimates from the Dvorak technique suggested a peak intensity of 100 mph (160 km/h) and a minimum barometric pressure of 978 mbar (hPa; 28.88 inHg). [44]
