The storm headed southwest, ultimately dissipating on October 11 about southwest of where it formed.

It headed west-northward, producing a storm surge as it passed off shore of Grand Isle, Louisiana, on August 22, steadily strengthening to an 80 mph ( 130 km / h ) Category 1 hurricane before making landfall near Galveston, Texas, on the September 24.

Shortly afterward, the storm reversed course and headed for Savannah.

The season's third storm formed near the Leeward Islands on August 24 and headed northwest, turning westward into the Bahamas three days later, gradually strengthening as it did so.

Her compass ceased functioning and began to spin as the waves drove her through the storm, leaving the crew no idea which direction she was headed.

After entering the Atlantic, it headed towards North Carolina and made landfall on October 16 just before weakening to an extratropical storm with winds under hurricane force at 45 mph ( 70 km / h ).

If there is enough solar energy in the atmosphere, however ( on a hot summer's day, for example ), the moisture from one storm cell can evaporate rapidly — resulting in a new cell forming just a few miles from the former one.

Sometimes powerful windstorms form if the pressure falls rapidly, traveling along the Gulf Stream at great speed, resembling a hurricane, and finally crashing in this bay with their maximum power, such as the Klaus storm.

Typically, if there is little wind shear, the storm will rapidly enter the dissipating stage and ' rain itself out ', but if there is sufficient change in wind speed and / or direction the downdraft will be separated from the updraft, and the storm may become a supercell, and the mature stage can sustain itself for several hours.

Colonel William Thornton ( of the 85th Regiment ) was to cross the Mississippi during the night with his 780-strong brigade, move rapidly upriver and storm the batteries commanded by Commodore Daniel Patterson on the flank of the main American entrenchments and then open an enfilading fire on Jackson's line with howitzers and rockets.

Next day, the London Independent newspaper savaged the WTO and appeared to side with the organizers of the rapidly developing storm of protest:

The storm formed on August 14 and rapidly deepened.

The hurricane rapidly weakened as it progressed inland, and within twelve hours of moving ashore, Camille weakened to tropical storm status.

Inland, the storm rapidly weakened, and the National Hurricane Center discontinued advisories early on June 6.

Such a storm will rapidly intensify, tracking northward and following the topography of the East Coast, sometimes continuing to grow stronger during its entire existence.

The traditional criteria that distinguish a derecho from a severe thunderstorm are sustained winds of during the storm as opposed to gusts, high or rapidly increasing forward speed, and geographic extent ( typically in length.

Thereafter, the storm steadily weakened as it tracked rapidly north-northeastward.

The other elements of the scheme include a weir on Blackmans Swamp Creek, which creates a 3 megalitre pool and the site for the first pump station, a 200 megalitre dam and two 17 megalitre batching ponds. The pumps on the creek transfer stormwater to the 200 megalitre dam at a rate of up to 450 litres per second and are designed to rapidly extract peak storm flows from the creek.

However, if the loading is rapidly applied and large enough, or is repeated many times ( e. g. earthquake shaking, storm wave loading ) such that it does not flow out in time before the next cycle of load is applied, the water pressures may build to an extent where they exceed the contact stresses between the grains of soil that keep them in contact with each other.

A storm of protests and accusations of racism rapidly followed.

By September 19, an upper-level anticyclone was well established over Georges and satellite pictures suggested that the hurricane was beginning to strengthen rapidly, as indicated by the cooling cloud tops, increased symmetry of the deep convection, and the warming and contracting of the well-defined 40 mi ( 63 km ) wide eye as rapid intensification continued, and Georges peaked at a very dangerous Category 4 storm with 155 mph ( 250 km / h ) wind and a 937 minimal pressure late on September 19 and early September 20.

After landfall, Gilbert weakened rapidly over the Yucatan Peninsula, and emerged into the Gulf of Mexico as a Category 2 storm on September 15.

While crossing the island, cold, dry air began impacting the storm, causing it to rapidly become extratropical and merge with a frontal zone shortly after reemerging into the Atlantic Ocean.

The storm rapidly weakened inland and was only a tropical depression later that day.

Once overland, the storm began to rapidly weaken, degrading to a tropical storm within 12 hours.

However, the storm rapidly accelerated and re-emerged into the Atlantic Ocean on September 14 near the Outer Banks of North Carolina.

Thereafter, the storm began to rapidly intensify and developed an eye appeared on satellite imagery.
