Ernesto briefly became a hurricane, then dropped back to a tropical storm. I was in Florida when it hit there, then drove through it in Georgia and South Carolina, getting ahead of it. I stopped in North Carolina, and it caught up to me, so I had to drive through it again in North Carolina and Virginia, when it was 4 mph shy of hurricane status. I got ahead of it again, delivered in New Jersey, then ran back to Virginia through the remains of the storm, which by then was a tropical depression. As this storm was only a hurricane briefly, and while it was, was known as Hurricane Ernesto, but the majority of the time it was a tropical storm, I consider it Tropical Storm Ernesto. It made landfall around Miami, FL, then again around Wilmington, NC, through Hampton Roads, VA, then shortly thereafter was downgraded to a tropical depression. As I am not aware of this storm being classed as a hurricane at any time when any part of the storm was over land, I would say that you were either in the tropical storm or not in it at all.

A tropical storm is catagorized as such when the maximum sustained winds are over 45 mph and under 65 mph. A hurricane is such that the maximum sustained winds are over 65 mph. Depending upon where you were and what the winds were at the time Ernesto would either be a hurricane, a tropical storm, a tropical depression or just a low pressure area. I was in the tropical storm area. Not knowing where you are, then there is no way of answering the rest of your question. Not enough information!

Ernesto was at it's highest a category 1 hurricane and then became a tropical storm. It hit Jamaica, Cuba, Florida, North Carolina. Virginia, Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York. I live in PA so I was in the storm. I don't know where you live so I'll guess you were in the storm as well.

the bigger storms devour and feed off of the smaller ones, it is what retains them going and each each and every now and then growing to be. Jupiter has rather some diverse climate bands moving in opposite guidelines, so there is not any risk for a hurricane, as quickly as began, to lose steam with the help of drifting off too some distance north or south. it fairly is compelled to stay interior the narrow selection of the climate band, it is extremely like a supercharged jet flow. each and each of those jet streams carry 1000's of storms interior of, and those storms do not probably have the alternative of having out of how of the different. it rather is the reason they merge. it rather is the reason the great purple Spot is so vast. it rather is the reason it has lasted centuries. So in a nutshell, the great purple spot isn't the only comparable hurricane that has lasted 1000's of years. it fairly is basically a area the place many smaller storms save feeding mutually. the comparable element happens on earth each and every each and every now and then (see: the suited hurricane), even with the reality that right here on earth they at last die off. area word: rather some human beings are utilising a hurricane reference, it is wonderful, yet you do not want a land mass to kill a hurricane. All you may desire to do is take away the warmth tropical waters it feeds off of (a good number of hurricanes die off interior the cooler Atlantic without ever hitting land). hurricane Sandy, for occasion, wasn't an invaluable hurricane (it became basically a Cat a million whilst hitting NJ). What made it so undesirable became that it blended with a low stress equipment on the comparable time as severe tide, and it did so decrease than an entire moon whilst tides are even bigger than everyday at the beginning. this mixture, not the hurricane itself, is what led to the form of flooding (and the wear that observed) this section hasn't considered in centuries. it rather is largely what's occurring on Jupiter. The sheer variety of storms are severe and those useful, fueling situations consistently combine mutually to maintain those storms alive and in many situations growing to be.

A tropical storm is a cyclonic depression whose circular winds are not strong enough to qualify as a hurricane. A hurricane "level" is determined by the speed of the cyclonic winds with a level 5 being the strongest.

In NY we have the after affects, but nothing more than a heavy rain storm. Nothing to worry about.
