	Hurricane Lili (1984) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hurricane Lili was the final tropical cyclone of the 1984 Atlantic hurricane season, and was one of only four Atlantic storms on record to reach hurricane status in the month of December.
		Lili struggled to retain its hurricane status for 3 days, but succumbed to the shear on December 23 by weakening to a tropical storm.
		Because its effects were minimal, the name Lili was not retired, and was used again for the 1990 season and 1996 before being retired in the 2002 season and it was replaced by Laura in 2008.

		Hurricane Lili caused Perrodin's home and others' the loss of electricity for six days, while Perrodin and residents tried to fight off the heat without use of air conditioners or fans.
		Perrodin recalled that the second day of the hurricane was unbearable because it was so hot "and all you could do was hope you could make it through." Trucks traveled into Louisiana from neighboring states of Oklahoma and North Carolina to aid in restoring electricity to the affected cities.
		Perrodin was in the eye of Hurricane Lili, and when a part of the eye passed, "it got dead calm for about an hour." Read More...

	Hurricane Lili Lashes Cuba, Caymans and Jamaica
		Lili was a classic Cape Verde Storm that first formed as a tropical wave on September 13th.
		Lili became a tropical depression on the 21st of September, and then strengthened and organized into the 12th named storm of the season as it approached the Windward Islands.
		As Lili moved away from Montego Bay in Jamaica, it began to strengthen in earnest, and was approaching hurricane strength again as it approached the Caymans.

	Hurricane Lili Threatens Storm Weary Louisiana
		Hurricane Lili is only the fourth hurricane and second major hurricane of the 2002 Atlantic Hurricane Season.
		But Lili would spare the Big Easy and its Louisiana neighbors as it made landfall as a much weaker storm as shearing winds from a nearby trough brought the storm's winds down to only 100 mph, which made it only a strong Category Two Hurricane.
		As Lili moved farther inland over Louisiana, tornadoes became a problem as around ten twisters formed near the center of circulation, which was quite rare since tornadoes usually form in the Northeastern quadrant of a landfalling hurricane.

	Converging satellites unlock Hurricane Lili's sudden demise
		Hurricane Lili was a Category 1 hurricane, and was centered over Louisiana on Oct. 3, 2002.
		Using a fleet of NASA and other satellites as well as aircraft and other observations, scientists were able to unlock the secret of Hurricane Lili's unexpected, rapid weakening as she churned toward a Louisiana landfall in 2002.
		During this time span, Hurricane Lili rapidly weakened from a category 4 to a category 1 storm, with its maximum sustained winds decreasing by 45 knots (51.8 mph) in the 13-hour period, until she made landfall in Louisiana.

		Hurricanes Ivan, Katrina, and Rita are among the most powerful hurricanes recently to enter the Gulf of Mexico.
		One particularly interesting phenomenon observed during Hurricane Lili, was the important role played by the muddy inner shelf off western Louisiana in dissipating wave energy and inhibiting the development of the storm surge field on the shelf and along the coast.
		The range of the estimated shear velocity during the passage of Hurricane Lili was 5-12.5 cm/s.

	NOAA News Online (Story 1038)
		Lili is moving toward the west-northwest near 13 mph, and this motion is expected to continue with an increase in forward speed during the next 24 hours.
		Hurricane force winds extend outward up to 25 miles from the center, and tropical storm force winds extend outward up to 140 miles.
		A hurricane watch may be required for portions of the northwestern and northern coasts of the Gulf of Mexico later Tuesday.

	Science & Technology \| Researchers study demise of hurricane
		As Hurricane Lili churned toward landfall on the night of October 4, she had escalated from a Category 2 to a Category 4 storm and there was real concern that she might go all the way to the most dangerous level, a Category 5.
		In the LSU Hurricane Center, state climatologist Jay Grymes, LSU oceanographer Greg Stone, and others were intently watching the storm, tracking it through the center’s instruments and supplying advice to state emergency officials in preparation for the big hit.
		Hurricane models are no good if they can’t predict how the storm will behave, so Lili’s sudden drop in intensity generated a lot of interest.

	BBC - Weather Centre - Weather News - Hurricane Lili moves through
		Hurricane Lili came ashore at Marsh Island on the Louisiana coast at 3pm UK time on Thursday, the first full-blown hurricane to hit the American coast since 'Irene' struck Florida in 1999 (all other storms in the meantime having weakened to below hurricane strength before making landfall).
		Lili reached the coast as a category 2 hurricane with winds up to 100mph and a 1 to 3 metre storm surge.
		But while Lili was certainly a powerful storm, authorities had expected something far worse.

	USGS National Wetlands Research Center: Press Release Hurricane Lili
		Lafayette, LA-U.S. Geological Survey scientists are continuing to monitor the effects of Hurricane Lili, which slammed into the Louisiana coast Oct. 3, with winds in excess of 110 miles per hour.
		In addition to hurricanes and storms, causes of land loss are natural subsidence and lack of marsh replenishment because of levees, he said.
		Lili's damage to the marshes was from the combined effects of storm surge, winds and wave action.

	USGS scientists monitor coastal damage from Hurricane Lili
		Lafayette, LA - U.S. Geological Survey scientists are continuing to monitor the effects of Hurricane Lili, which slammed into the Louisiana coast Oct. 3, with winds in excess of 110 miles per hour.
		Hurricane damage is especially of great concern to the state, Stewart said, because it has already lost an average of 25 to 35 square miles of land a year to open water over the past 50 years.
		East of hurricane landfall, from Point Au Fer Island to the Chandeleur Islands, the state's chain of barrier islands and barrier shorelines exhibited marked shoreline retreat.

	Welcome to the Best of New Orleans! News Feature 10 15 02
		One theory reported in Lili's aftermath was that Isidore had sucked the heat out of Gulf of Mexico waters, taking away one of the factors that contributes power to a hurricane.
		The eyewall of Lili was observed shrinking very rapidly and, like a figure skater pulling in her arms, it spun faster, increasing its intensity.
		Then there are the hurricane tracking planes, which fly at 10,000 feet, crisscrossing through the eye and measuring the winds going through the eyewall, and measuring the pressure once they make it to the center.

	CNN.com - Downgraded but not out, Lili rumbles on - Oct. 3, 2002
		Tropical Storm Lili pounded Louisiana with heavy rain and fierce winds Thursday as it moved inland, no longer a hurricane but still packing enough force to knock out power to hundreds of thousands of homes after wreaking wet havoc across the state's southern parishes.
		Despite the punch Lili was predicted to pack, there were no reports of deaths by Thursday afternoon,and only the scattered reports of injuries.
		The hurricane center predicted the giant storm surge brought by Lili would decrease throughout the evening, but flooding along the storm's path remained a large threat.

	Hurricane Lili fizzled
		As Lili approached Vermilion Bay on Louisiana's coastline, something caused the storm to lose its oomph, just in time to save New Iberia, Franklin and Morgan City from the disastrous effects of what National Hurricane Center Director Max Mayfield said was the largest hurricane to approach the Gulf Coast in a generation.
		Hurricanes often form a second circular wind band around their eye that accordions in and out and eventually replaces the original eye.
		As Lili approached the coastline, both radar and satellite views indicated that something was pulling the storm's eye apart.
