Hurricane Karen |
North Atlantic |
Classic case of the conversion of a subtropical cyclone into a tropical cyclone as illustrated by
the "upward" growth of the warm-core thermal wind signal (-VTL and -VTU) to the tropopause
while the thermal asymmetry (B) of the cyclone decreases simultaneously. An enhanced version of this evolution is given by Olga later the same year. |

22 November- |
5 December Hurricane Olga |
North Atlantic |
Classic case of the conversion of a weak extratropical cyclone (-VT negative on 22ND and 23RD)...into a subtropical cyclone as the warm core develops and builds upward (-VTL becomes positive on 24TH). The subtropical cyclone then converts to a
tropical cyclone (-VTU becomes positive on 25TH), before dissipation as a weak shallow warm-core low in early December.
