The 1918 Atlantic hurricane season featured two hurricane landfalls in the United States. The season was inactive, with a total of six tropical storms developing, four of which intensified into hurricanes. One of the four hurricanes became a major hurricane, which is Category 3 or higher on the modern-day Saffir–Simpson scale. Additionally, there were four suspected tropical depressions, including one that began the season on June 19 and one that ended the season when it dissipated on October 19. The early 20th century lacked modern forecasting and documentation, and thus, the hurricane database from these years may be incomplete. Four previously unknown tropical cyclones were identified using records, including historical weather maps and ship reports, while information on the known storms was amended. The strongest and most notorious tropical system of the season was the second tropical cyclone, which peaked as a Category 3 hurricane. The storm devastated southwestern Louisiana in early August, especially Cameron Parish, leaving 34 fatalities and approximately 5million(1918USD)indamage.InlateAugust,theseason′sthirdtropicalstormdamagedportionsofcoastalNorthCarolina,causingupto5 million (1918 USD) in damage. In late August, the season's third tropical storm damaged portions of coastal North Carolina, causing up to 5million(1918USD)indamage.InlateAugust,theseason′sthirdtropicalstormdamagedportionsofcoastalNorthCarolina,causingupto15,000 in damage. Although the fifth tropical storm or its extratropical remnants caused only minor impacts on land in Bermuda and Atlantic Canada, 21 people drowned after two ships were caught in the storm. The season's activity was reflected with an accumulated cyclone energy (ACE) rating of 40, below the 1911–1920 average of 58.7. ACE is a metric used to express the energy used by a tropical cyclone during its lifetime. Therefore, a storm with a longer duration will have high values of ACE. It is only calculated at six-hour increments in which specific tropical and subtropical systems are either at or above sustained wind speeds of 39 mph (63 km/h), which is the threshold for tropical storm intensity. Thus, tropical depressions are not included here. (en) |
