Tropical Storm Andrea

[edit]
Tropical storm (SSHWS)
 
DurationMay 20 – May 21
Peak intensity55 mph (90 km/h) (1-min);
995 mbar (hPa)

A tropical disturbance formed off the coast of the windward islands on 23rd May with sustained wind of 25mph and a pressure of 1011mbar. As the system tracked westward, intensity increased. On 27th May, south of Jamaica, tropical depression one formed, with winds of up to 35mph. As one started to speed up in movement west, pressure continued to drop. On 30th May, just off the coast of Nicaragua, tropical storm Andrea formed. In the following days, as Andrea entered the Gulf of Honduras, intensification occurred.

As Andrea reached the coast of Belize, wind speeds were up to 45mph, and pressure was down to 1002mbar.As Andrea crossed the Yucatán Peninsula, wind speeds were knocked down to 25mph with a sustained pressure of 1006mbar. By 4th June, Andrea have moved into the Gulf of Mexico and re-achieved tropical storm status. Just off the coast of Louisiana, on 5th June, Andrea reached peak intensity (55mph, 995mbar). 2 days later, on 7th June, Andrea made it's last landfall on the Florida Panhandle as a tropical storm at wind speeds of 50mph and a pressure of 997mbar. After landfall, Andrea became extra tropical and drifted north. On 11 June, Andrea dissipated just south of the Great Lakes.
