APPENDIX IV REPORTS OF HURRICANES, TROPICAL STORMS, TROPICAL DISTURBANCES AND RELATED FLOODING DURING 2003 (Submitted by Members) 2003 HURRICANE SEASON SUMMARY (Submitted by Antigua and Barbuda) The “normal” Hurricane Season generates nine (9) tropical storms, six (6) of which develop into hurricanes and of these six hurricanes, two (2) will develop further into intense hurricanes i.e. category 3, 4, 5 (Gray et. al.) This year (2003) there were fifteen (15) storms, six (6) of which developed into hurricanes and of these hurricanes, three (3) developed into intense hurricanes. It should be noted that two (2) of these fifteen (15) storms (Ana and Odette) were ‘out of season’ storms. Antigua and Barbuda were not affected directly by any tropical depressions, tropical storms, or hurricanes, however, Intense Category Hurricane Fabián produced some storm surge damage to the northern and northwestern coasts of Antigua. A few cases of damage (slight) to boats were also reported. In late November, a near stationary upper level trough, which affected the area for approximately ten (10) days, produced in excess of seven (7) inches of rainfall which helped tremendously to alleviate ‘drought’ conditions affecting Antigua and Barbuda. ___________________
APPENDIX IV, p. 2 2003 HURRICANE SEASON SUMMARY (Submitted by The Bahamas) The 2003 cyclone season was a quiet one for the Bahamas and the Turks and Caicos Islands with the exception of a close brush from Tropical Storm Mindy on October 11. Tropical Storm Mindy formed from a tropical wave that moved into the Atlantic from Africa on October 1. The wave further developed as its axis entered the Mona Passage on October 9. On the 10 th , strong disorganized convection associated with the wave passed across the eastern Dominican Republic. During the evening hours of the 10 th , the system developed into Tropical Storm Mindy with 40 knot winds. The center of Mindy passed just east of the Turks and Caicos Islands on October 11. However, the islands were not adversely affected as heavy rain and tropical storm force winds remained to the east. Grand Turk reported 27 knot winds and 1007.1 hPa on October 11 as Mindy passed just east of this location. A tropical storm warning was issued for the southern Bahamas and the Turks and Caicos Islands. However, due to the movement of the storm, tropical storm conditions were not experienced over the warned areas. ___________________
