Meteorological Analysis
|
Arlene originated from a complex interaction between tropical waves and the
inter tropical convergence zone in the Carribean. 2 tropical waves moved
through the inter tropical convergence zone between the 5th and 8th of June.
This caused an area of deepening convection to develop, and a tropical
depression formed on the 8th. Under relaxing shear, the depression became
tropical storm Arlene by June 9th, 150 nm west south west of the Cayman
Islands. Arlene continued to strengthen as it moved north, and made landfall
in Cabo Corrientes, Cuba on June 10th with winds of 50 mph. Cuba barely
stopped Arlene and its wind speed increased to 70 mph with a pressure of
989 mb on June 11th. The convection of Arlene then began to deteriorate from
dry air, and Arlene made landfall in Pensacola, Florida with winds of 60 mph on
June 11th. Arlene then continued north and weakened over land, and finally
dissipated on June 14th near the Michigan/Canadian border.
