In the Atlantic Ocean: * Tropical Storm Bertha (1957), a moderate tropical storm that threatened areas devastated by Hurricane Audrey two months earlier, but did not become a hurricane and caused only minor damage. * Tropical Storm Bertha (1984), a minimal tropical storm that formed in the mid-Atlantic and never threatened land. * Hurricane Bertha (1990), a Category 1 Hurricane that moved north, parallel to the east coast of the United States before dissipating over Nova Scotia leaving nine dead, including six on a ship sunk by the storm. * Hurricane Bertha (1996), a Category 3 hurricane that crossed the Leeward Islands and passed near Puerto Rico, later making landfall in North Carolina as a Category 2 storm, causing $270 million in damage to the United States and resulted in many indirect deaths. * Tropical Storm Bertha (2002), a minimal tropical storm that formed only two hours before landfall i ...

Tropical Storm Bertha (1957)
The 1957 Atlantic hurricane season featured one of the longest-travelling tropical cyclones in the Atlantic basin, Hurricane Carrie. Nevertheless, the season was generally inactive, with eight tropical storms – two of which went unnamed – and three hurricanes, two of which intensified further to attain major hurricane intensity. The season officially began on June 15 and ended on November 15, though the year's first tropical cyclone developed prior to the start of the season on June 8. The final storm dissipated on October 27, well before the official end of the season. The strongest hurricane of the year was Carrie, which reached the equivalent of a Category 4 hurricane on the Saffir–Simpson hurricane scale on two separate occasions in the open Atlantic; Carrie later caused the sinking of the German ship ''Pamir'' southwest of the Azores, resulting in 80 deaths. In total, the season resulted in at least 513 fatalities and $152.5 m ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Tropical Storm Bertha (1984)
The 1984 Atlantic hurricane season was the most active since 1971, though the season was below average in hurricanes and major hurricanes. It officially began on June 1, 1984, and lasted until November 30, 1984. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the Atlantic basin. The 1984 season was an active one in terms of named storms, but most of them were weak and stayed at sea. Most of the cyclones tracked through the northwest subtropical Atlantic west of the 50th meridian to near the Eastern coast of the United States between mid-August and early October. The most damaging storm was Hurricane Klaus, which caused $152 million (1984 dollars) in damage in Puerto Rico. Hurricane Diana was the first hurricane to strike a nuclear power plant without incident; it was also the first major hurricane to strike the U.S. East Coast in nearly 20 years. Also of note was Hurricane Lili, which lasted well after the officia ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
