Re: Soth Atlantic Hurricane Question

Keith&Clark,

These boards had considerable discussion on the storm, in a thread entitled "First known tropical storm (or hurricane) forms in South America" or something like that. It's worth reading if you have a few minutes...

If whatever memory I have left serves me, I believe a good deal was made of the position of the ITCZ at the time, which was one of many factors which led to development.

Check it out some time!
