Notes:
States Affected and Category by States Affected: The impact of the
hurricane on individual U.S. states based upon the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane
Wind Scale (through the estimate of the maximum sustained [1-min] surface [10
m] winds at each state).
TX S-South Texas, TX C-Central Texas, TX N-North Texas, LA-Louisiana,
MS-Mississippi, AL-Alabama, FL NW-Northwest Florida, FL SW-Southwest Florida,
FL SE-Southeast Florida, FL NE-Northeast Florida, GA-Georgia, SC-South Carolina
, NC-North Carolina, VA-Virginia, MD-Maryland, DE-Delaware, NJ-New Jersey,
NY-New York, PA-Pennsylvania, CT-Connecticut, RI-Rhode Island, MA-Massachusetts
, NH-New Hampshire, ME-Maine.
In Texas, south refers to the area from the Mexican border to Corpus Christi;
central spans from north of Corpus Christi to Matagorda Bay and north refers
to the region from north of Matagorda Bay to the Louisiana border.
In Florida, the north-south dividing line is from Cape Canaveral [28.45N] to
Tarpon Springs [28.17N]. The dividing line between west-east Florida goes
from 82.69W at the north Florida border with Georgia, to Lake Okeechobee and
due south along longitude 80.85W.) Occasionally, a hurricane will cause a
hurricane impact (estimated maximum sustained surface winds) in an inland
state. To differentiate these cases versus coastal hurricane impacts, these
inland hurricane strikes are denoted with an "I" prefix before the state
abbreviation. States that have been so impacted at least once during this
time period include Alabama (IAL), Georgia (IGA), North Carolina (INC),
Virginia (IVA), and Pennsylvania (IPA). The Florida peninsula, by the nature
of its relatively landmass, is all considered as coastal in this database.
Highest U.S. Saffir-Simpson Category: The highest Saffir-Simpson
Hurricane Wind Scale impact in the United States based upon estimated maximum
sustained (1-min) surface (10 m) winds produced at the coast. ("TS" indicates
that the system caused only tropical storm conditions in the United States,
though it was a hurricane at landfall. See "&" below.)
Central Pressure: The observed or estimated central pressure of the
hurricane at landfall.
Maximum Winds: Estimated maximum sustained (1-min) surface (10 m)
winds to occur along the U. S. coast. Winds are estimated to the nearest 10
kt for the period of 1851 to 1885 and to the nearest 5 kt for the period of
1886 to date. (1 kt = 1.15 mph.)
* - Indicates that the hurricane center did not make a U.S. landfall (or
substantially weakened before making landfall), but did produce the indicated
hurricane-force winds over land. In this case, central pressure is given for
the time that the hurricane winds along the coast were the strongest.
& - Indicates that the hurricane center did make a direct landfall,
but that the strongest winds likely remained offshore. Thus the winds
indicated here are lower than in HURDAT.
# - Indicates that the hurricane made landfall over Mexico, but also
caused sustained hurricane force surface winds in Texas. The strongest winds
at landfall impacted Mexico, while the weaker maximum sustained winds indicated
here were conditions estimated to occur in Texas. Indicated central pressure
given is that at Mexican landfall.
Additional Note: Because of the sparseness of towns and cities
before 1900 in some coastal locations along the United States, the above list
is not complete for all states. Before the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic coasts
became settled, hurricanes may have been underestimated in their intensity or
missed completely for small-sized systems (i.e., 2004's Hurricane Charley).
The following list provides estimated dates when accurate tropical cyclone
records began for specified regions of the United States based upon U.S Census
reports and other historical analyses. Years in parenthesis indicate possible
starting dates for reliable records before the 1850s that may be available with
additional research:
Texas-south > 1880
Texas-central > 1851
Texas-north > 1860
Louisiana > 1880
Mississippi > 1851
Alabama < 1851 (1830)
Florida-northwest > 1880
Florida-southwest > 1900
Florida-southeast > 1900
Florida-northeast > 1880
Georgia < 1851 (1800)
South Carolina < 1851 (1760)
North Carolina < 1851 (1760)
Virginia < 1851 (1700)
Maryland < 1851 (1760)
Delaware < 1851 (1700)
New Jersey < 1851 (1760)
New York < 1851 (1700)
Connecticut < 1851 (1660)
Rhode Island < 1851 (1760)
Massachusetts < 1851 (1660)
New Hampshire < 1851 (1660)
and Maine < 1851 (1790).
