Source Data for Hurricane Reconstruction in the Central and Eastern Caribbean Sea (CECR) region
Creators
Description
The accompanying source data includes excerpts taken from sources used to document
hurricane intensity and landfall and/or impacts on land. This data is extracted from a
database of tropical cyclone data for the entire North Atlantic. Data includes storm
number for the given year, the data extracted from original sources, the digraph
indicating location and intensity of hurricane impact. In some instances, in lines marked
with ***** there is additional information to amplify the source data. For the years that
overlap with the official hurricane record from NOAA (HURDAT) for 1851-1930, the
storm numbers indicated are given for both my database and then for HURDAT. If there
is no HURDAT entry, then the storm does not exist in HURDAT or assessed to be
incorrect.
