(Table 2)

Tropical Storm Alberto made landfall near Adams Beach, Florida and
produced torrential rains in western Cuba and in the eastern United
States.

a.  Synoptic History

    Alberto formed from an area of disturbed weather that persisted for
    several days over Central America and the northwestern Caribbean
    Sea. The thunderstorm activity increased on 8 June with the arrival
    of a westward moving tropical wave and became concentrated between
    the Yucatan Peninsula and Cuba where pressures began to fall. It is
    estimated that by 0600 UTC 10 June, there was a surface circulation
    and organized convection to classify the system as a tropical
    depression. It was then centered about 120 n mi south of the western
    tip of Cuba. The depression moved slowly northwestward toward a
    region of a strong southwesterly wind shear and the center of
    circulation became displaced to the southwest of the main area of
    convection. The winds increased over the eastern semicircle and the
    depression became a tropical storm at 0000 UTC 11 June. By then, the
    cyclone was located about 60 n mi northeast of the northeastern tip
    of Yucatan. Thereafter, Alberto turned northward and northeastward,
    producing intermittent bursts of deep convection. The cyclone
    intensified and reached its peak intensity of 60 kt and a minimum
    pressure of 995 mb about 100 n mi south of Apalachicola, Florida at
    0000 UTC 13 June.

    Thereafter, the cyclone began to weaken as it moved toward the coast
    and Alberto made landfall with 40-knot winds near Adams Beach,
    Florida at about 1630 UTC 13 June. Alberto continued toward the
    northeast farther inland and weakened. It began to lose tropical
    characteristics over South Carolina and became extratropical at 1200
    UTC 14 June and then moved back over the Atlantic, where it became a
    powerful extratropical storm just south of Nova Scotia. The cyclone
    was tracked all the way to the British Isles where it was absorbed
    by a frontal system. The "best track" chart of the tropical
    cyclone's path is given in Fig. 1, with the wind and pressure
    histories shown in Figs. 2 and 3, respectively. The best track
    positions and intensities are listed in Table 1.

b.  Meteorological Statistics

    Observations in Tropical Storm Alberto (Figs. 2 and 3) include
    satellite-based Dvorak technique intensity estimates from the
    Tropical Analysis and Forecast Branch (TAFB), the Satellite Analysis
    Branch (SAB) and the U. S. Air Force Weather Agency (AFWA), as well
    as flight-level and dropwindsonde observations from flights of the
    53^rd^ Weather Reconnaissance Squadron of the U. S. Air Force
    Reserve Command. Microwave satellite imagery from NOAA
    polar-orbiting satellites, the NASA Tropical Rainfall Measuring
    Mission (TRMM), the NASA QuikSCAT, and Defense Meteorological
    Satellite Program (DMSP) satellites were also useful in tracking
    Alberto.

    Alberto produced tropical storm force winds in the Dry Tortugas at
    an elevated 40-ft high platform at 0000 UTC 11 June when the center
    of the cyclone was almost 300 n mi to the southwest of the location.
    At the same time, the crew on board the Air Force aircraft measured
    flight level winds of 40 to 45 knots in a few convective bands.
    These winds were considered unrepresentative of the cyclone's
    intensity and the system was kept as a tropical depression
    operationally. Twelve hours later, a second reconnaissance aircraft
    measured 51 knots at 1400-ft and ship WDB3258 reported sustained
    winds of 33 knots. This suggests that the earlier observations were
    indeed representative of the cyclone's intensity. Consequently, it
    is estimated that the cyclone became a tropical storm at 0000 UTC 11
    June. A NOAA P-3 reconnaissance plane measured a peak wind of 81
    knots at 5000 feet at 1657 UTC 12 June. This wind was considered
    transient and unrepresentative of the storm's strength since wind
    values nearby were lower. Alberto's peak intensity was estimated at
    60 kt at that time.

    The cyclone produced torrential rains in western Cuba, where there
    was a report of 17 inches and several of 10 to 15 inches. There were
    seven tornadoes in South Carolina, most of them rated as F0.
    Selected surface observations from land stations and data buoys are
    given in Table 2.

c.  Casualty and Damage Statistics

    Numerous houses received flood damage as two feet of water covered
    the road to downtown in Levy County, FL. Storm surge flooding near
    Homossassa, Citrus County put 3 ft of water into a restaurant and
    damaged 20 homes. A few trees were downed in Tallahassee causing
    power outages. There were no direct deaths associated with Alberto
    as a tropical storm. However, it caused one death and some damage
    after it became extratropical. An 8 year old boy drowned in Franklin
    County, NC north of Raleigh. He was chasing a ball which was going
    down the drainage system and was pulled in. There was a press report
    of 4 sailors missing about 200 n mi south of Nova Scotia when
    Alberto was a strong extratropical storm. The American Insurance
    Services Group indicated that the property loses associated with
    Alberto were small.

d.  Forecast and Warning Critique

    Tropical Weather Outlooks from the National Hurricane Center began
    describing the area of disturbed weather from which Alberto
    developed two days prior to tropical cyclogenesis. For a few days in
    advance, global models in general suggested the formation of a large
    area of low pressure over the northwestern Caribbean Sea and the
    Gulf of Mexico. This low became Alberto.

    Because Alberto was forecast to become a hurricane, a hurricane
    warning was issued for a portion of the Florida west coast. Watches
    and warnings associated with Alberto are summarized in Table 3.

    A verification of official and guidance model track forecasts is
    given in Table 4. Average official track errors for Alberto were 34,
    63, 70, 93, 217, and 236 n mi for the 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, and 96 h
    forecasts, respectively. The number of forecasts ranged from 15 at
    12 h to 1 at 96 h. These errors are lower than the average long-term
    official track errors (Table 4).

    Average official intensity errors were 6, 8, 11, 11, 5, and 15 kt
    for the 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, and 96 h forecasts, respectively. For
    comparison, the average official intensity errors over the 5-yr
    period 2001-2005 are 6, 10, 12, 14, 18, and 20 kt, respectively.
    Table 5 shows the official intensity errors, the model forecast
    errors and the long-term average errors.

Table 5. Preliminary intensity forecast evaluation (heterogeneous
sample) for Tropical Storm Alberto, 10-14 June. Forecast errors (kt) are
followed by the number of forecasts in parentheses. Errors smaller than
the NHC official forecast are shown in bold-face type. Verification
includes the depression stage, but does not include the extratropical
stage, if any.
