Historic Bertha Stats Adding Up
Mon Jul 07 2008 07:24 PM
|
|
|
* Bertha becomes the earliest Major Hurricane since Hurricane Dennis (July. 7, 2005).
* Bertha and Dennis now both tie as the earliest Major Hurricanes on record since Hurricane Audrey (1957).
* Bertha becomes the earliest tropical cyclone to become a hurricane this far east.
* Bertha is upgraded to a Hurricane on the same day as the historic Bertha of 1996 was; however, Bertha 2008 also becomes a major hurricane two days sooner.
* Bertha became the sixth strongest "early season" hurricane on record. (Those forming before August 1st).
* Bertha became a named storm the farthest east of any on record for the months of June and July.
* Bertha became our first Cape Verde tropical cyclone of 2008, and one of the earliest on record.
This is information that I have collected and is accurate to the best of my knowledge, thus far. It may or may not be entirely accurate, and there could also be more I have not listed, and yet more to come.
