Tropical Cyclone Rainfall Spatial Asymmetries in the Lesser Antilles
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Rainfall is not proportional to the Saffir‐Simpson wind‐based categories. Lower category tropical cyclones (TS, H1, H2 and H3) can generate more intense rainfall than H4 and H5. Rainfall is asymmetric; as a tropical cyclone intensifies or weakens, the location of peak rainfall shifts.

Weather Patterns Associated With Coastal Disasters in Santa Catarina, Southern Brazil
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.The study identified weather patterns (WPs) associated with coastal disasters between 1998 and 2020 along the Santa Catarina coast, Brazil. Using atmospheric and oceanographic data combined with official disaster records, five WPs were defined, mainly associated with cyclonic and anticyclonic systems linked to extreme wave events.

The Impacts of Southwest Indian Ocean Tropical Cyclones on Transient Weather in Réunion
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Tropical cyclones which make passage near Réunion can have significant impacts on transient weather relative to long‐term means on the island. In this paper, these impacts were determined by a topological analysis of non‐landfalling tropical cyclones. The relationship between storm intensity, distance, duration, and seasonality plays an equal role in ...
