Abstract

During the period May 18-28, 1958 a subtropical depression formed in the Caribbean Sea and moved northnortheastward parallel to the east coast of the United States. The Low became extra-tropical and continued northward west of Greenland. This system had many interesting features. It gave heavy rains to the Miami area causing some local flooding. It had all the prospects of becoming a full scale hurricane but the winds never even reached storm speed (greater than 38 m. p. h.) until after the depression became extra-tropical. As this occurred the Low's vertical structure was peculiar. These points and others are discussed in this article.
