  • Hurricane Dennis caused severe flooding in Miami-Dade County, Florida, in August 1981. The tenth tropical cyclone and fourth named storm of the season, Dennis developed from a tropical wave well south of Cabo Verde on August 7. The depression intensified into a tropical storm early the next day. Dennis then encountered strong wind shear, causing the storm to weaken to a tropical depression on August 11. After crossing the Windward Islands on August 12, Dennis degenerated into a tropical wave several hours later over the Caribbean Sea. The wave became a tropical depression again late on August 15 while approaching Cuba. Dennis reintensified into a tropical storm before landfall in Matanzas Province. The cyclone emerged into the Straits of Florida on August 16, before striking the Florida Keys and then mainland Monroe County early the next day. It drifted across Florida, reaching the Atlantic near Cape Canaveral on August 19. Dennis continued to intensify and made landfall near Emerald Isle, North Carolina, but moved east-northeastward and soon tracked offshore. Late on August 20, Dennis deepened into a hurricane with winds of 80 mph (130 km/h), before weakening to a tropical storm over colder waters on August 21. Dennis became extratropical northeast of Bermuda early on August 22 and persisted until being absorbed by a frontal system on August 26. In the Caribbean, Dennis dropped heavy rainfall on some islands, including Martinique, Saint Lucia, Virgin Islands, and the Greater Antilles. Flooding in Jamaica left at least 50 people homeless. In Florida, heavy rain fell in many areas to the east of the storm's path. Much of southeast Florida received at least 7 in (180 mm) of precipitation, while over 25.56 in (649 mm) of rain fell in Homestead. Nearly all of Miami-Dade County was flooded to the south of Kendall Drive. Many businesses and homes in cities such as Homestead and Florida City suffered water damage. However, the worst damage was incurred to crops, which experienced a loss of over $17.26 million (1981 USD). One death and nearly $18.5 million in damage occurred in Florida. Further north, Dennis also caused flooding in the Carolinas, inundating many streets and causing crop damage in both states. A weather-related traffic accident in South Carolina resulted in two fatalities. Twenty families in Columbus County, North Carolina evacuated after the Waccamaw River overran its banks. Overall, Dennis left caused three deaths and about $28.5 million in damage. (en)
  • El huracán Dennis fue la tormenta más destructiva de la temporada de huracanes en el Atlántico de 1981. Dennis tardó doce días y medio en alcanzar el estado de huracán, un registro que batió el huracán Arlene en la temporada de huracanes en el Atlántico de 1987. La onda tropical que más tarde se convertiría en Dennis, se formó en la costa africana el 5 de agosto. Hacia el 7 de agosto, la onda alcanzó el estado de depresión tropical, y bajo este nombre se dirigió hacia el oeste. Durante ese mismo día se convirtió en una tormenta tropical y fue llamada Dennis, pasando a ser la 4.ª tormenta de la temporada de 1981. Cuando Dennis se aproximaba al mar Caribe, vientos de nivel fuerte superiores degradaron a la tormenta en una onda tropical hacia el 11 de agosto. Sobre el 15 de agosto, Dennis recuperó el estado de tormenta tropical, y como tal cruzó Cuba y llegó al estrecho de Florida. El 18 y 19 de agosto, Dennis atravesó la península de Florida como una tormenta tropical débil y más tarde se alejó hasta cierta distancia de la costa. Dennis bordeó entonces las Carolinas y alcanzó brevemente el estado de huracán antes de ser declarado extratropical el 22 de agosto Dennis ocasionó pérdidas de $15 millones de dólares estadounidenses ($34'4 millones de dólares en 2007) en las zonas agrícolas de Florida.

  • L’Ouragan Dennis est le quatrième système tropical à avoir reçu un nom en 1981. Il a été le second plus destructeur de la saison bien qu’il ait pris 12 jours et demi pour atteindre le statut d’ouragan. Il a fallu attendre l’ouragan Arlene de 1987 pour avoir une plus longue incubation. Une onde tropicale s’étant formé au large de la côte africaine le 5 août est à l’origine de Dennis. Le système a pris beaucoup de temps à se développer tout en se dirigeant vers l’ouest, oscillant d’intensité. Il a à peine atteint la catégorie 1 dans l’échelle de Saffir-Simpson le 21 août 1981 au large des Carolines avant de devenir extratropical le jour suivant. Dennis a causé pour 17 millions $US de dommages (40,8 millions $US de 2009), dont 15 à l’agriculture de Floride. (fr)
