Cases where more than one TC existed in the GOM at the same time


Recommended Posts

* Storms #2 and #3 in 1909 almost did... while the former was LF'ing in the W Gulf, #3 was about to enter the extreme NE GOM crossing the FL peninsula

* Storms #11 and #12 in 1933 was a very similar case, but I think this one is more clear.

* Storms #4 and #5 in 1944 didn't quite make it, since #5 was in the middle of the Yucatan while #4 was landfalling

* Edith and Fern in 1971... similar to the previous case.

Only clear case was in 1933

Something that would be exceptionally difficult since most likely one would be shearing the crap out of the other (as Fay was doing to Edouard).

Still, though, they were both technically TCs.

In that case, I would have to add 1 more, apart from Fay/Edouard...and that would be Beulah and unnamed storm #3 from 195. All cases were minimal TS or TDs, rather apart (W or SW GOM vs E or NE GOM)

What about a case where one TC existed in the Gulf and another Cape Verde TC existed moving west. That's gotta be fun for the models!

1851-1899 cases:

1) 1865: While #5 was near the LA coast, #4 was in the Leewards moving W. #4 ended up hitting W LA about a week later:

2) 1887: While #13 was moving WNW in the S Gulf north of the Yucatan, #15 was moving NW at 50W. #15 ended up recurving near 55W. #13 ended up recurving and hitting E LA/MS:

3) 1890: While #2 was moving N into E LA, #3 was moving WNW near 55W-60W E of the Leewards. #3 ended up recurving near 70W.

4) 1893: While #10 moved from the Yucatan to E LA/MS, #9 was ~40-50W moving WNW. #9 hit SC 11 days later.

5) 1895: While #6 moved ENE to S FL, #5 moved E to the Windwards from 50W. #5 later recurved just missing S FL.

When have time, will check for more.
