Atlantic front Weatherwatch Around the world
The practice of giving hurricanes
names has several advantages: not
least, it allows the public to track
their progress. But when we heard
about Hurricane Bertha , a rather old
fashioned name, we m ight perhaps
have been forgiven for not taking it
as seriously as we should have done.
Bertha started life in early August
2014 not as a hurricane, but as
a tropical wave. It then became
stronger, earning a promotion to the
category of tropical storm, before
slowing down as it passed across the
Caribbean and being downgraded
back to its earlier status. But on
4 August, its winds strengthened
to 130 km /h (80 mph), making it
offi cially a hurricane.
That status did not last long. As
it headed north along America’s
eastern seaboard , Bertha weakened
- but then began to race across the
Atlantic towards the UK. It reached
British shores on 10 August, along
with Met Offi ce weather warnings.
What made the former hurricane
unusual was that it occurred so early
in the season – when we expect
to be basking in summer holiday
sunshine. Fortunately, it did not
cause too much damage, though
cross-channel ferries and trains were
disrupted, trees were blown over
and various sporting events had to
be cancelled. Stephen Moss
