	Hurricane Ivan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The National Hurricane Center noted the rapid strengthening of Hurricane Ivan on September 5 was unprecedented at such a low latitude in the Atlantic basin.
		Hurricane Ivan weakened slightly as it continued to move west due to wind shear present in the area.
		Heavy damage as Ivan made landfall on the U.S. coastline was observed in Pensacola, Pensacola Beach, dwellings situated far inland along the shorelines of Escambia Bay, East Bay, and Blackwater Bay in Escambia County and Santa Rosa County, and Fort Walton Beach, Florida on the eastern side of the storm.

		September 9, as of the 2am EDT update, Ivan reached a new top sustained windspeed of 160 mph (260 km/h) and was classified as a Category 5 hurricane.
		Ivan is pummelling Jamaica, though the wobble has thus far kept the eye just south of the island.
		Ivan is an extremely dangerous storm, and is not forecast to weaken significantly before striking land.

	Hurricane Ivan Observed by NASA's Satellites
		Hurricane Ivan made landfall in the United States on the morning of September 16, 2004 after it caused heavy damages due to high winds and heavy rain throughout the Caribbean.
		In the wake of Hurricane Frances that hit the Florida Peninsula the weekend of September 4, 2004, Hurricane Ivan has formed in the Tropical Atlantic and is approaching the Gulf of Mexico with category 4 strength (See NOAA's Tropical Prediction Center).
		The eye of the Hurricane is clearly visible in the center of the whirl thanks to the sharp contrast between the cloud top temperatures and the eye.

	Hurricane Ivan Roars Through Caribbean And U.S. Gulf Coast
		As Hurricane Frances slowly bared down on the East Central Coast of Florida, Ivan began its journey as a strong tropical wave that moved off the West African coast into the Eastern Atlantic.
		However, within twelve hours, Ivan was officially born as the ninth named storm of the season with sustained winds reaching the minimum threshold at 40 mph.
		Hurricane Ivan has certainly left its mark not only in terms of power and fury, but also in respect to death and destruction as well.

	Hurricane Ivan Impact Studies (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		On Friday September 17, 2004, scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) conducted an aerial photographic survey of the barrier islands in Alabama and Florida that were impacted by Hurricane Ivan.
		The barrier islands exposed to Ivan's strongest winds, for example, the communities of Gulf Shores and Orange Beach, AL, are, in places, low lying, their dunes rising up only several meters, which is insufficient to have contained Ivan's storm surge.
		Compare the pilings in the pre and post-photos of the house adjacent to the multi-story structure to determine the scale of vertical erosion of the dune.

	Hurricane Ivan
		In response to a recent bulletin from the Alabama Commissioner of Insurance regarding victims of Hurricane Ivan, Unitrin Multi Lines Insurance is glad to extend the payment receipt period (grace period) for all premiums that would otherwise have been due between Sept. 15 and Nov. 15, 2004.
		Although the Commissioner’s bulletin applied to hurricane victims only, we are extending this same offer to all Unitrin MLI personal and commercial policyholders statewide.
		This approach generally eliminates the need to establish which policyholders are or aren’t victims of hurricane damage.

		Berg, the hurricane center forecaster who was not involved in the Naval Research Laboratory study, said the network of buoys that measure wave heights isn't very large.

		It was probably the cumulative effect of four hurricanes in 7 years that resulted in the deep erosion (evidenced by lack of shoaling) seen now after Hurricane Ivan.
		After Hurricane Georges (1998), North Gosier disappeared, but it came back so that just prior to Hurricane Ivan it was a long sand spit, largely unvegetated.
		Just prior to Hurricane Ivan, South Curlew was only a subaerial spit, and North Curlew (pictured) was a long sand island with no vegetation except for a few small shrubs in the middle.

		The significant impact of Hurricane Ivan (2004) on the Gulf of Mexico offshore industry infrastructure has created an urgent need for block-specific metocean information.
		This study applies the proven high level hurricane hindcast technology that has evolved over the past 25-years and applied within major joint industry projects to the development of Gulf of Mexico metocean design data and to major MMS supported studies of Hurricane Andrew (1992) and Hurricane Lili (2002).
		The purpose of this study is to develop a description of the evolution and distribution of the surface wind field, sea state, storm driven surge and the ocean current field in the northern Gulf of Mexico during the approach and passage of Hurricane Ivan (2004).

		Hurricane Ivan caused a preliminary total of 13 deaths in the following counties combined: Baldwin County, Alabama, Escambia County, Florida, Santa Rosa County, Florida.
		The absence of shower and thunderstorm activity prior to the arrival of Ivan's significant rainbands means that this time period captured nearly all of the event rainfall associated with Ivan.
