Hurricane isaac 2012

Hurricane Isaac makes landfall.

Hurricane Isaac affected northern Gulf Coast of the United States, including the western Florida Panhandle, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana, as a tropical depression. The ninth tropical cyclone and ninth named storm of the 2012 Atlantic hurricane season, Isaac developed from a tropical wave located east of the Lesser Antilles on August 21, strengthening into a tropical storm later that day. Isaac passed over Hispaniola and Cuba as a strong tropical storm, killing at least 29 people, and entered the Gulf of Mexico. (more from wikipedia).

Hurricane isaac

Hurricane-Isaac-Storm-Juno-Beach-Pier-Weak-Waves-Tropical-Depression

Hurricane Isaac was the final tropical cyclone of the 2006 Atlantic hurricane season. Isaac originated in a tropical wave that entered the Atlantic Ocean on September 18. An associated area of disturbed weather eventually organized sufficiently to be declared a tropical depression on September 27, while located southeast of Bermuda. The depression was upgraded to a tropical storm just 12 hours later, though unfavorable atmospheric conditions, including high wind shear and cool water temperatures, initially inhibited further intensification. Isaac ultimately peaked as a Category 1 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale, and brushed Newfoundland as a tropical storm. Effects from the storm were minimal and limited to gusty winds, rough surf, and sporadic rainfall. (more from wikipedia).
