Hurricane Floyd was the deadliest United States hurricane since Hurricane Agnes in 1972, killing 57 people and causing billions in damage as it moved northward along the Atlantic coast. Hurricane Lenny killed 17 as it tracked eastward across the Caribbean, the first hurricane known to do so for an extended time period.

Storms

Tropical Storm Arlene

A mid- to upper-level low developed along the tail end of a diffuse front in the central Atlantic Ocean in early June. While moving northward, it generated convection, and developed a small low-level circulation. Based on increased outflow and organization, it was classified as Tropical Depression One on June 11, and under generally favorable conditions it strengthened into Tropical Storm Arlene on the 12th while several hundred miles southeast of Bermuda. The storm moved roughly northwestward, reaching peak winds of 60 mph before coming within 115 miles of Bermuda on the 17th. It turned north and away from the island where upper level shear caused Arlene to dissipate on June 18. No damages were reported.

Tropical Depression Two

Tropical Depression Two formed in the western Gulf of Mexico from a tropical wave on July 2. It made landfall 75 miles south-southeast of Tuxpan, Veracruz, on the 3rd, and dissipated shortly thereafter. The system dropped heavy rain to the area amounting to a maximum of 20.37 inches/517 mm at Tanzabaca/Tamasopo in Mexico.^[1] The system caused no reported deaths or damages.

Hurricane Bret

Main article: Hurricane Bret (1999)

A tropical depression that formed in the Bay of Campeche on August 18 reached tropical storm strength late on August 19. Bret moved north, and strengthened into a 145 mph Category 4 hurricane on August 22. As it approached Texas, Bret turned to the northwest, and made landfall as a Category 3 hurricane at Padre Island on August 23, becoming the first major hurricane to hit Texas since Hurricane Alicia in 1983. The storm continued inland and dissipated over northern Mexico on August 25. Damage is estimated at $60 million, which is rather low for a hurricane of this intensity. Hurricane Bret made landfall in the sparsely populated Kenedy County, Texas, missing Brownsville, Texas to its south and Corpus Christi, Texas to its north. The hurricane dissipated quickly after its last advisory for the city of Laredo, Texas. 2 B C D E 7 F G H 11 12 I J K L Categories: | | | ...

Hurricane Cindy

A tropical wave moved off the coast of Africa on August 18, and quickly developed into Tropical Depression Four on the 19th while around 300 miles east-southeast of the Cape Verde Islands. Persistent westerly shear initially inhibited development, but a decrease in the shear allowed the depression to strengthen into a tropical storm on the 20th. Cindy quickly attained hurricane status, and weakened back to a tropical storm due to an increase in the shear. The unfavorable conditions abated, and Cindy quickly strengthened into a 140 mph Category 4 hurricane while 430 miles east-southeast of Bermuda. Shear increased as Cindy turned to the northeast, and the storm dissipated on August 31 as it merged with an extratropical cyclone about 1000 miles west of the Azores.

Hurricane Dennis

Main article: Hurricane Dennis (1999)

Dennis was a Category 2 hurricane that was erratic in both track and intensity. Although it never made landfall as a hurricane, the storm was responsible for producing hurricane-force winds along the North Carolina coast along with beach erosion. The hurricane caused $157 million in damage, and killed 4 people. The heavy rains from Dennis also set the stage for destructive flooding from Hurricane Floyd about 2 weeks later.

Tropical Depression Eleven

A tropical wave organized into Tropical Depression Eleven in the Bay of Campeche on October 4. Under weak steering currents, it drifted southward, then westward, remaining weak due to a broad surface trough over the eastern Gulf of Mexico. The depression merged with the trough on the 6th, though tropical storm force winds remained over coastal waters. The depression's large, unorganized circulation, in combination with previous rainfall along the Mexican coastline, resulted in the worst flooding in at least 40 years for the region with at least 384 casualties attributed to the resulting flood.^[3] Cyclone Catarina, a rare South Atlantic tropical cyclone viewed from the International Space Station on March 26, 2004 Hurricane and Typhoon redirect here. ...

Tropical Depression Twelve

Tropical Depression Twelve developed from a tropical wave on October 6 between the Lesser Antilles and the Cape Verde Islands. It moved erratically the the west-northwest without developing. While this was going on, the low-level circulation was mostly of the west side of the convection, due to a lower-level trough to the depression's north. Convection diminished and dissipated on September 8 as the low level circulation became less well-defined. However the remnant low-level cloud swirl could be tracked going west-northwest for several days afterwards, until dissipating completely north of the Lesser Antilles.

Hurricane Irene

Main article: Hurricane Irene (1999)

Irene formed on October 12 from a broad trough of low pressure while south of the Isle of Youth. It headed north and passed over the Isle of Youth and western Cuba on the 14th. While over the Straits of Florida, Irene reached hurricane strength. The next day, it made landfall at Key West, Florida, and again near Cape Sable, Florida. Half a day later, Irene moved back over water near Jupiter, Florida as a minimal hurricane. It slowly strengthened as it paralleled the Florida through North Carolina. When Irene interacted with a trough from the west while over the warm Gulf Stream waters, the hurricane rapidly intensified to a peak of 110 mph, but it accelerated to the northeast, weakening over the cooler waters of the North Atlantic. On the 19th, Irene became extratropical near Newfoundland, and was absorbed by an extratropical low shortly thereafter. Hurricane Irene was the 9th tropical storm and the 6th hurricane from the 1999 Atlantic hurricane season. ...

Hurricane Jose

Main article: Hurricane Jose (1999)

Jose formed on October 8 while 400 miles east of the Windward Islands. The storm quickly strengthened into a hurricane and over 2,000 people were evacuated from islands in its path. It moved northwest, and as the hurricane passed over Antigua, Saint-Barthélemy and St. Martin on the 20th and 21st. Over a foot of rain fell on St. Martin. It weakened to a tropical storm as it approached the U.S. Virgin Islands and as it neared Puerto Rico, Jose turned to the north-northeast. Jose remained on a near-straight line track into the north Atlantic until it lost its tropical characteristics on October 25. It then merged with a non-tropical system.

Hurricane Lenny

Main article: Hurricane Lenny

Hurricane Lenny was a damaging late season hurricane first named on November 13 while in the western Caribbean Sea. Lenny tracked generally east over the Caribbean, and is the only storm recorded to have done so for an extended period of time. Lenny was a Category 4 hurricane when it approached the Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands on the 17th. Its motion slowed and began weakening as it passed over the Leeward Islands, and Lenny made its final landfall in Antigua on the 19th. Lenny continued eastward on an erratic course into the Atlantic where it dissipated on November 23. Lowest pressure 933 mbar (hPa; 27. ...
