Atlantic Hurricane Season.
JUNE 26 - JULY 1, 2010
![Page 12: REMEMBERING 2O10’S SEVERE WINDSTORMS — PART 2 Xynthia Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Atlantic Basin Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Pacific Basin Typhoons](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062300/56649dc65503460f94ab9dd3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
ALEX STARTED AS A TROPICAL WAVE IN THE CARIBBEAN: JUNE 20
![Page 13: REMEMBERING 2O10’S SEVERE WINDSTORMS — PART 2 Xynthia Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Atlantic Basin Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Pacific Basin Typhoons](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062300/56649dc65503460f94ab9dd3/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
After Alex formed on June 25, a tropical storm warning was issued for the east coast of Quintana Roo
on Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula and the east coast of Belize
![Page 14: REMEMBERING 2O10’S SEVERE WINDSTORMS — PART 2 Xynthia Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Atlantic Basin Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Pacific Basin Typhoons](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062300/56649dc65503460f94ab9dd3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
In the central Caribbean Sea, the system produced heavy rainfall in
the Dominican Republic that caused flooding and prompted the
evacuation of more than 3,000 people.
![Page 15: REMEMBERING 2O10’S SEVERE WINDSTORMS — PART 2 Xynthia Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Atlantic Basin Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Pacific Basin Typhoons](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062300/56649dc65503460f94ab9dd3/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
TROPICAL STORM ALEX: LANDFALL AT BELIZE; JUNE 26
![Page 16: REMEMBERING 2O10’S SEVERE WINDSTORMS — PART 2 Xynthia Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Atlantic Basin Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Pacific Basin Typhoons](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062300/56649dc65503460f94ab9dd3/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
After making landfall in Belize and the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico, Tropical Storm Alex strengthened again as it entered the very warm waters of the Bay of Campeche.
![Page 17: REMEMBERING 2O10’S SEVERE WINDSTORMS — PART 2 Xynthia Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Atlantic Basin Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Pacific Basin Typhoons](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062300/56649dc65503460f94ab9dd3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
On the evening of June 28, a hurricane warning was issued for the coast of Texas, south of Baffin
Bay to the mouth of the Rio Grande, and by the Mexican Government from the Rio Grande south to La
Cruz.
![Page 18: REMEMBERING 2O10’S SEVERE WINDSTORMS — PART 2 Xynthia Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Atlantic Basin Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Pacific Basin Typhoons](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062300/56649dc65503460f94ab9dd3/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Although waves and winds along Alex’s path slowed work to stop the
BP Gulf Oil Spill, in its 71st day of 107 days, the good news is that the storm did not push the oil landward
faster or accelerate movement of the oil eastward into the Atlantic.

Unlike Hurricane Alex, which swiped Texas then plunged
southwest into Mexico, Hermine was more memorable in Texas,
dumping from 5 to 12 inches of rain in San Antonio, ripping off roofs in
Raymondville, and disrupting power for 35,000 in the Rio Grande Valley.

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

The power of Igor and Julia, two Cat 4 hurricanes still moving through the Atlantic, is an indication of how warm the Atlantic water still was in September.

Karl made landfall on the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico
as a strong tropical storm, and then made landfall near Veracruz, Veracruz State, on
the central Mexican Gulf coast, as a major hurricane.
![Page 73: REMEMBERING 2O10’S SEVERE WINDSTORMS — PART 2 Xynthia Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Atlantic Basin Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Pacific Basin Typhoons](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062300/56649dc65503460f94ab9dd3/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)

It was not the best time for a “rainmaker” like Karl to
make landfall near Veracruz, because rain had been
falling in the area since mid-August.
![Page 77: REMEMBERING 2O10’S SEVERE WINDSTORMS — PART 2 Xynthia Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Atlantic Basin Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Pacific Basin Typhoons](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062300/56649dc65503460f94ab9dd3/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
Karl dumped 8 inches (21.5 cm of rain in Veracruz within
90 minutes, 31.4 cm in the nearby mountains, and 25.4 cm across the central and southern Gulf coast region before drenching Mexico
City.

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.
![Page 80: REMEMBERING 2O10’S SEVERE WINDSTORMS — PART 2 Xynthia Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Atlantic Basin Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Pacific Basin Typhoons](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062300/56649dc65503460f94ab9dd3/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
State-owned Petroleos Mexicanos closed 14
production wells in the northern part of Veracruz
state and evacuated workers from some oil platforms in
the Gulf.

MATTHEW WEAKENS, BUT STILL A RAINMAKER: SEPT 26, 2010

After landfall in Belize, Matthew’s rains and winds
hit Honduras and Nicaragua on Friday (24th), forcing
hundreds of residents and tourists to evacuate and
threatening coffee and sugar crops.
![Page 85: REMEMBERING 2O10’S SEVERE WINDSTORMS — PART 2 Xynthia Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Atlantic Basin Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Pacific Basin Typhoons](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062300/56649dc65503460f94ab9dd3/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)
The small economies of Guatemala, Nicaragua and
Honduras depend heavily on agricultural exports like
coffee and sugar.
![Page 86: REMEMBERING 2O10’S SEVERE WINDSTORMS — PART 2 Xynthia Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Atlantic Basin Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Pacific Basin Typhoons](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062300/56649dc65503460f94ab9dd3/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
Matthew moved northward towards Guatemala and
Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula as a rainmaker, losing force before reaching the Gulf of
Mexico where most of Mexico's oil platforms are
located.

Nicole’s fast moving remnant joined another low pressure
system and became a big rainmaker for the East Coast,
from Florida to Maine.

PAULA HEADS TOWARDS CUBA AS CAT 2 HURRICANE: OCT 13

Cuba's current weak economy was still recovering from 2008’s devastating trio of Hurricanes Gustav, Ike and Paloma that
caused $10 billion in damage to the tobacco fields of Pinar
del Rio and to other parts of the island.

![Page 94: REMEMBERING 2O10’S SEVERE WINDSTORMS — PART 2 Xynthia Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Atlantic Basin Tropical Storms and Hurricanes: Pacific Basin Typhoons](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062300/56649dc65503460f94ab9dd3/html5/thumbnails/94.jpg)
On October 17th, Western Cuba was at high risk, because
whenever a big storm like Paula is moving slowly, it's going to spend a longer time dumping heavy rain, and it could still
strengthen again.

Recognizing the danger
Tomas represented to locations in the eastern
Caribbean, Haiti, and possibly the Gulf of Mexico, all nations
were advised to pay close attention to Tomas’ path during
the first week of November.

In the eastern Caribbean, Tomas left at least 14 dead, many homeless, and island
nations suffering from millions of dollars in
damages to banana crops, housing, and infrastructure
from wind, flooding, and landslides

Tomas, as a CAT 2 storm, was the “the worst in Saint. Lucian history,” causing the loss of its
entire banana crop, which along with tourism, is extremely
important to Saint Lucia’s economy.

Hurricane Tomas, which intensified overnight on Thursday (Nov. 4) to CAT 1, is bearing down on Haiti, a country with a triple disaster: 1) the January 12, 2010 earthquake, 2) cholera affecting at least 6,700 people, and 3) more than 1 million people still living in tents.

Tomas, a CAT I storm and rainmaker, came ashore at
Haiti's far southwestern edge on Nov. 5th, slamming the
coastline with 135 kph (85-mph) winds and deluging the area
with heavy rain.

RELATIVE GOOD NEWS: Perhaps, only six deaths
along with an early indication that, except for localized flooding, most of the tent cities were spared.

Leogane, which had already
lost 90 percent of its buildings and thousands of people in the
Jan. 12th quake, is one of several Haitian towns that were
not spared from flooding.

Old and new disasters were mingled in Leogane, where
milky-brown floodwaters filled quake-cracked streets and
patched-up homes and isolated a camp that had become home
to hundreds of refugees.
