HIGHLIGHTS OF 2O10 ATLANTIC BASIN TROPICAL STORM SEASON NOVEMBER 30 th WAS THE LAST DAY OF WHAT IS NOW A SEASON TIED WITH 1995 AS THE 2 ND MOST ACTIVE SEASON IN HISTORY Walter Hays, Global Alliance for Disaster Reduction, University of North Carolina, USA

2010—A BUSY SEASON FOR THE ATLANTIC BASIN

HURRICANE TOMAS WAS THE LAST STORM OF THE 2010 SEASON

The most active hurricane season in the past 40 years— with 28 storms-- occurred in 2005, forcing the National Hurricane center to use six letters from the Greek alphabet for names...

By Sept 26 th, the 2010 Atlantic hurricane season, had produced 13 named storms, four more than in 2009 and four more than the average number for a typical season.

Four major storms formed in 20 days, the fastest that four Category 4 hurricanes have ever formed, beating the previous record of 24 days set during the1999 season.

The reason: The Atlantic basin has been registering record high temperatures since March, according to U.S. archives.

By Oct 30 th, the 2010 Atlantic hurricane season, had produced 19 named storms, including 12 hurricanes, with one month left in the season.

Miraculously, none of 2010’s storms made landfall in the USA.

TROPICAL STORM IGOR: SEPT 8, 2010

,” The power of Igor and Julia, two Cat 4 hurricanes moving simultaneously through the Atlantic, was an indication of how warm the Atlantic was.

A RARE PHENOMENON: THREE ACTIVE HURRICANES ON SEPT 17

HURRICANES IGOR AND JULIA AND TS KARL: SEPT 15, 2010

HURRICANE IGOR APPROACHING BERMUDA: SEPT 16, 2010

PRECURSORS OF A CAT 2 HURRICANE IGOR: BERMUDA; SEPT 18

PREPARING FOR EFFECTS OF HURRICANE IGOR: BERMUDA; SEPT 18

Bermuda, which is smaller than Igor’s “eye,” dodged a bullet, because Igor, a huge storm, weakened to a CAT 1 storm as it approached and did not make landfall on Bermuda.

Buildings performed well because Bermuda's building codes specify that homes must be built with walls at least 20 cm (8 in) thick, and able to withstand 150 mph (241 kph) gusts and sustained winds of 110 mph (177 kph).

BERMUDA EXPERIENCED GUSTY WINDS AND HEAVY RAIN: SEPT 19-20

A CAT 1 IGOR LEAVES BERMUDA; HEADS TOWARDS ATLANTIC CANADA: SEPT 20

Karl made landfall twice: first on the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico as a strong tropical storm, and second near Veracruz, Veracruz State, on the central Mexican Gulf coast, as a major hurricane.

Tropical storm Karl became a Cat 1 hurricane on September 16th.

KARL: 165 KM FROM VERACRUZ; SEPTEMBER 17

TROPICAL STORM KARL: SEPT 14-17, 2010

HURRICANE KARL: LANDFALL NEAR VERACRUZ, SEPT 18, 2010

It was not the best time for a “rainmaker” like Karl to make landfall near Veracruz, because rain had been falling in the Veracruz area since mid-August.

Karl dumped 8 more inches (21.5 cm) of rain in Veracruz within 90 minutes, 31.4 cm in the nearby mountains, causing landslides, and 25.4 cm across the central and southern Gulf coast region before drenching Mexico City.

FLOODING FROM KARL: NORTH OF VERACRUZ; SEPT 18

FLOODING IN ANTIGUA: 35 KM FROM VERACRUZ; SEPT 17

Karl caused widespread damage in Veracruz: knocking down hundreds of trees, billboards, and power poles, leaving 80 % of the city without electricity, and upending cars.
