Hurricane Ada

On June 11, a tropical wave formed over the western Atlantic Ocean about 1000 miles east from Puerto Rico and rapidly strengthened to tropical storm status at 2:00 UTC the next morning. Moving at about 4 knots an hour, the storm quickly intensified to a category 1 hurricane. Ada moved WNW at about 7 knots an hour for nearly 36 hours until as a category 2 hurricane, it moved west. As Ada continued to strengthen and move closer to land, hurricane watches were placed for the Eastern Bahamas. In the early hours of June 17, the Hurricane Hunters warned that Ada took an ominous turn northwest, now as a category 4 hurricane with 140 mph winds. Later that day, the Hurricane Hunters flew into the eye of Ada at peak intensity, 150 mph winds and 937 hPa (mbar). Several newschannels nationwide predicted this to be the next devastating hurricane that could destroy Charleston, SC. This changed when Ada weakened back to a category three and turned west. Hurricane warnings were issued for the Bahamas and hurricane watches were issued on the coast of eastern Florida. On June 19, about 18 hours after warnings were issued, Ada made landfall on the island of Great Abaca in the Bahamas as a category 3 hurricane, killing 11 people. Just after, Ada started to turn north, making several southeastern states panic about how little time they will have to prepare. However, Ada only affected North and South Carolina, Virginia, Delaware, and Maryland. Ada slowly moved ENE until becoming extratropical on June 23.
