1857/01:  No major changes from Partagas and Diaz's (1995a) analysis.

1857/02:  No major changes from Partagas and Diaz's (1995a) analysis. Ship with central pressure observation of 961 mb gives 94 kt with the subtropical latitude wind-pressure relationship, utilizing 90 kt in best track - supporting hurricane status.  Storm is known in Ludlum's (1963) work as the "Central America Disaster in 1857" due to the loss of the ship the "S.S. Central America".

1857/03:  No major changes from Partagas and Diaz's (1995a) analysis. Storm is suggested to be stationary throughout its four day existance. This storm is determined to have reached hurricane status based upon reports from the ship "Ocean Express".

1857/04:  Combined Partagas and Diaz's (1995a) analysis of storms #4 and #5 into one continuous track.  Utilized Kaplan and DeMaria's (1995) inland decay model for storm's winds over Texas and Mexico.  Storm is determined to have reached hurricane status based upon report from the ship "Cadet".
