	1997 Atlantic hurricane season - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The 1997 Atlantic hurricane season was an ongoing event in the annual cycle of tropical cyclone formation.
		Hurricane Danny killed four people, and caused an estimated $100 million in damage when it made landfall near the mouth of the Mississippi River.
		Hurricane Erika, the strongest storm of the season, passed within 75 nm of the Lesser Antilles, far enough away to prevent hurricane conditions from reaching land.

	Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale is a scale classifying hurricanes by the intensity of their sustained winds, developed in 1969 by civil engineer Herbert Saffir and National Hurricane Center director Bob Simpson.
		Hurricane Fran – New England Hurricane of 1938 – Hurricane Isidore – Hurricane Jeanne – Hurricane Opal – Hurricane Rita
		Hurricane Charley – Hurricane Donna – Galveston Hurricane of 1900 – Hurricane Hugo – Hurricane Iris – Hurricane Wilma

	Climate Prediction Center - Expert Assessments: Atlantic Hurricane Outlook Update
		An important measure of the total seasonal activity is NOAA’s Accumulated Cyclone Energy (ACE) index, which accounts for the collective intensity and duration of Atlantic tropical storms and hurricanes during a given hurricane season.
		For the 2005 Atlantic hurricane season the outlook calls for an extremely active season, with the seasonal ACE index forecasted to range from 180%-270% of the median.
		Hurricane seasons during 1995-2004 have averaged 13.6 tropical storms, 7.8 hurricanes, 3.8 major hurricanes, and with an average ACE index of 159% of the median.

	Accumulated Cyclone Energy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Accumulated Cyclone Energy or ACE is a measure used by NOAA to express the activity of Atlantic hurricane seasons.
		The 2005 Atlantic hurricane season met all the criteria for an above average season on 5 September, earlier than any other year in this period.
		The 2005 season is still continuing, with a nominal closing date of November 30.

		Conversely, seasonal hurricane activity is typically reduced during the easterly QBO phase and large vertical wind shear conditions between 30 and 50 mb.
		Despite the weak 1997 hurricane season, the annual average of NS, H, HD, IH, IHD and NTC during the last six years are 146, 163, 239, 329, 331 and 214 percent (respectively) of the average hurricane activity for the six-year period of 1989-1994.
		The general warming of the North Atlantic that has taken place during the last six years is in concurrence with increased incidence of major hurricanes, an association similar to what occurred during the most active hurricane seasons of the 1930s to the 1960s.

	The extremely active 1995 Atlantic hurricane
		The 1995 Atlantic hurricane season was a year of near-record hurricane activity with a total of 19 named storms (average is 9.3 for the base period 1950-1990) and 11 hurricanes (average is 5.8), which persisted for a total of 121 named storm days (average is 46.6) and 60 hurricane days (average is 23.9), respectively.
		Their onset well ahead of the start of the hurricane season indicates that they are a cause of the increased hurricane activity, and not an effect.
		Hurricane Luis was of particular interest during 1995 because of its long duration at IH status and its destructiveness in the Caribbean.

		The 1997 El Nino event was likely the strongest on record and was the key factor that reduced the overall activity in the Atlantic basin.
		Since Danny was a compact hurricane, the area of maximum winds was confined to the vicinity of the eye.
		Erika- The strongest Hurricane of the 1997 season, Erika became a category three hurricane and was the only hurricane to form from a tropical wave at low latitudes.

	Special Summeray 97/4
		The increase in tropical storm and hurricane activity over the eastern North Pacific during 1997 compared to the previous two years was partly related to an expanded area of low vertical wind shear (the change in winds with height), in response to weaker-than-normal upper-level easterly flow throughout the region.
		A diagnosis and comparison of the African easterly jet location and structure between the 1997 and 1995 seasons is presented in section 5, and a summary follows in section 6.
		During August and September 1997, the African easterly jet was shifted south of normal to an average latitude of 11°-12°N (a 2°-3° latitude southward shift), with the primary area of cyclonic vorticity confined to the region south of 10°N (Figure 7, middle).

		Hurricane Bertha which was category 2 when it hit N Carolina had more of a subtropical look to it as it had no convection south of the center.
		Still, 1997 should be significantly more active than the average of the generally suppressed hurricane seasons during the last 25 years and especially in comparison to the particularly quiet seasons of 1991-1994.

		Additional meteorological data for Hurricane Danny, the most destructive hurricane affecting the U.S. mainland, includes a NEXRAD Doppler Radar derived storm total precipitation map, a table of stations reporting five inches or more rainfall from the storm, and a map of total precipitation created from an extensive collection of cooperative and National Weather Service stations.
		The 1997 hurricane season was lackluster compared to the previous two years.
		Hurricane Danny crept east-northeastward and finally made its first landfall just northwest of the delta near the towns of Empire and Buras early on July 18.

		Hurricane Ivan was an encore performer with two landfalls during 2004, first as a Category 3 hurricane near Gulf Shores, Ala., and second as a tropical storm over southwestern Louisiana.
		During 2004, the hurricane landfalls were also related to a strong region of high pressure over the western Atlantic in the middle levels of the atmosphere, which helped to steer hurricanes toward the United States rather than out to sea.

	2002 Atlantic Hurricane Season Ends Very Quietly (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-07)
		As supposed to recent Atlantic Hurricane Seasons, the 2002 Atlantic Hurricane Season ended rather quietly as a moderate El Nino developed in the late summer and fall, and hindered tropical activity.
		In 2001, there were a number of tropical storms and hurricanes including Hurricane Michelle, and Hurricane Olga, which lasted until the first week of December, 2001.
		It was quite startling to see such an abrupt end to the high level of activity in the Atlantic especially in light of the fact that statistically, there have been an increased number of tropical storms and even powerful hurricanes during the months of October and November since the 1994 season.
