The Rarity of the 1938 New England Hurricane As a Case of Post-Tropical Transition


Recommended Posts

I want to repost a couple of links to recent presentations given by Dr. Bob Hart of FSU, that bluewave posted to the NYC Metro forum around the anniversary of the 1938 Hurricane. They seem quite applicable to the post-tropical transition of Sandy early next week, but hadn't seen them mentioned in recent discussion in any of the forums:

Thanks again bluewave for finding this information in the first place!

Just to add to this, here are some composites I produced in my study of the hurricane of 38 last year. I took landfalling hurricanes in the Northeast, minus "near-misses" defined as crossing 40N between 60W and 68W with a component of motion less than 45 degrees...

Two huge distinguishing characteristics between the datasets are over the GOA / western NA and over Greenland / N Atlantic
