 Trasa huraganu Jeanne | |
Huragan Jeanne – dziesiąty nazwany sztorm tropikalny i siódmy huragan, oraz piąty, główny huragan w sezonie huraganowym na Atlantyku w 2004 roku. Maksymalny wiatr wyniósł 120 mph (195 km/h) i był w kategorii 3 skali Saffira-Simpsona[1].
Huragan nawiedził pięć krajów położonych nad Atlantykiem oraz Morzem Karaibskim.
W wyniku przejścia huraganu najbardziej ucierpiało Haiti, gdzie zginęło ponad 3000 osób. Huragan spowodował liczne lawiny błotne. Najwięcej ofiar znajdowało się w mieście Gonaïves, gdzie zginęło około 2000 osób. Ponadto niemal wszystkie budynki w Gonaïves zostały zniszczone i ponad 250 tys. osób pozostało bez dachu nad głową[2].
Huragan Jeanne spowodował śmierć 3037 osób co czyni go czwartym pod względem liczby ofiar huraganem w historii. Ponadto dokonał zniszczeń oszacowanych na blisko 7 miliardów dolarów.
Ze względu na znaczne straty materialne oraz straty w ludziach, jakie wywołał Jeanne, nazwa ta została wycofana z ponownego użycia w nazewnictwie cyklonów tropikalnych nad Atlantykiem.

The national and official state flag of Haiti; arms obtained from http://www.webchantier.com/. The civil flag can be found at here.
The flag of the Dominican Republic has a centered white cross that extends to the edges. This emblem is similar to the flag design and shows a bible, a cross of gold and 6 Dominican flags. There are branches of olive and palm around the shield and above on the ribbon is the motto "Dios,Patria!, Libertad" ("God, Country, Freedom") and to amiable freedom. The blue is said to stand for liberty, red for the fire and blood of the independence struggle and the white cross symbolized that God has not forgotten his people. "Republica Dominicana". The Dominican flag was designed by Juan Pablo Duarte, father of the national Independence of Dominican Republic. The first dominican flag was sewn by a young lady named Concepción Bona, who lived across the street of El Baluarte, monument where the patriots gathered to fight for the independence, the night of February 27th, 1844. Concepción Bona was helped by her first cousin María de Jesús Pina.
The flag of Navassa Island is simply the United States flag. It does not have a "local" flag or "unofficial" flag; it is an uninhabited island. The version with a profile view was based on Flags of the World and as a fictional design has no status warranting a place on any Wiki. It was made up by a random person with no connection to the island, it has never flown on the island, and it has never received any sort of recognition or validation by any authority. The person quoted on that page has no authority to bestow a flag, "unofficial" or otherwise, on the island.
The eye of Hurricane Jeanne was centered over the narrow gap of water between Abaco Island, right, and Grand Bahama Island, left, on September 25, 2004, when the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Terra satellite acquired this image. As the eye of the storm passed directly over Abaco Island and skirted the north coast of Grand Bahama Island, it strengthened from a Category 2 storm to a dangerous Category 3 hurricane. Between 8 a.m. and 11 a.m. EDT, sustained wind speeds went from 165 kilometers per hour (105 mph) to 185 kph (115 mph), according to the National Hurricane Center. This image was acquired at 10:15 a.m. EDT, during the strengthening period. When Jeanne reached Category 3 status, it became the fifth major hurricane of the 2004 Atlantic season.
This image is available in additionalfifth resolutions from the MODIS Rapid Response Team.Track map of Hurricane Jeanne of the 2004 Atlantic hurricane season. The points show the location of the storm at 6-hour intervals. The colour represents the storm's maximum sustained wind speeds as classified in the Saffir–Simpson scale (see below), and the shape of the data points represent the nature of the storm, according to the legend below.
