1951 Atlantic Hurricane Season (Hypercanes)

On April 29th of 1951, a tropical wave was found. In a 32% chance of formation, Hurricane Aroma came out of the sea as a depression. This was known as the hurricane with the worst winds until Hurricane Felix in 1953. Aroma quickly strengthened into a Category 1, but then developed wind shear and stopped growing not too far from Florida. Aroma made landfall in Florida and went into the Gulf of Mexico, but then lost all wind shear and quickly upgraded into a Category 2 before hitting Texas. Right before it hit, Category 3 was achieved. The peak winds were 118 mph. It made landfall in Texas and moved to Nevada as a Tropical storm. It eventually died down.

On May 7th, a tropical wave was found not too far from where Aroma started. But the winds were disobeying the disturbance and the tropical wave didn't turn out bad. But on May 15th, the tropical wave came back, and just before Aroma died, Carly formed. It wasn't as strong, but was headed towards Puerto Rico. At Category 1 force, it hit Puerto Rico. Wind shear stopped the rotation and it downgraded to a depression. It almost hit Mexico but it dissipated first. Casualties for Aroma were none, and surprisingly for Carly there was one.

On June 8th, a huge disturbance was detected near Florida. Then came Hurricane Evelyn. Evelyn was only a tropical storm, and it hit Barbuda but dissipated shortly after. This only did about $2,100 damage. Because it was so small, a tropical wave remained and slowly went east at 4 mph.
