Hurricane Imelda (2019/Hitman)

Hurricane Imelda was a Category 1 hurricane that caused relatively minor damage in Central America in September 2019. In all, no one was killed, but $60 million (2019 USD) in damages was done.

On September 3, the NHC began to monitor a tropical wave that moved off of Senegal. After moving West for several days without formation, the NHC decided there were no chances of it forming. On the 7th, the system abruptly formed, becoming a very slow moving Tropical Depression Nine. The depression became stationary north of Venezuela, causing the depression to not strengthen because of water temperatures. By the 9th, the depression became Subtropical Storm Imelda north of Colombia before becoming a Category 1 hurricane. Cooler ocean waters and wind shear began to disorganize Imelda, before the system weakened to a tropical storm and then into a depression on the 14th. The storm then dissipated the next before crossing over Costa Rica and into the Pacific where the system organized once again before striking Mexico as a extratropical system. In all, no one was killed, but $60 million (2019 USD) in damages occurred, mostly after the system dissipated and struck Central America.
