By 5 p.m. EDT (2100 UTC) on 25 August, a second flight had found sustained tropical-storm force winds, and the system was named Ernesto. Ernesto became a hurricane on the morning of 27 August just south of Haiti, before it was downgraded back to a tropical storm in the afternoon. The storm caused 2 deaths in Haiti due to rainfall. </p><p>Ernesto made landfall near Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, early in the morning on 28 August. At one point the storm was predicted to become a major hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico and threaten parts of the Gulf Coast, a grim possibility in light of the one-year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina's landfall. However, Ernesto moved much farther east than anticipated, and made landfall as a tropical storm on the southern tip of Florida on 29 August. Two people died in Florida in road traffic accidents attributed to the weather conditions, as the cyclone slowly moved northward across the southern half of the peninsula. Ernesto restrengthened into a tropical storm as it emerged from land near <a href="/wiki/Cape_Canaveral,_Florida" title="Cape Canaveral, Florida">Cape Canaveral</a>, and was just below hurricane strength when it made landfall again in North Carolina on 31 August. </p><p>Damage in Virginia totaled to $104 million (2006 USD) </p> <div style="clear:both;" class=""></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Hurricane_Florence">Hurricane Florence</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=2006_Atlantic_hurricane_season&veaction=edit&section=8" title="Change section: Hurricane Florence" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>change</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=2006_Atlantic_hurricane_season&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section's source code: Hurricane Florence"><span>change source</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r9689576"><table class="infobox" style="width: 24em;"><tbody><tr><td colspan="2" class="infobox-subheader" style="font-weight: bold; background: #FFFFD9">Category 1 hurricane (<a href="/wiki/Saffir-Simpson_Hurricane_Scale" class="mw-redirect" title="Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale">SSHS</a>)</td></tr><tr><td colspan="2" class="infobox-full-data"><div style="vertical-align: middle"><span class="nowrap"><span typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/File:Hurricane_Florence_11_sept_2006.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/22/Hurricane_Florence_11_sept_2006.jpg/150px-Hurricane_Florence_11_sept_2006.jpg" decoding="async" width="150" height="150" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/22/Hurricane_Florence_11_sept_2006.jpg/225px-Hurricane_Florence_11_sept_2006.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/22/Hurricane_Florence_11_sept_2006.jpg/300px-Hurricane_Florence_11_sept_2006.jpg 2x" data-file-width="5600" data-file-height="5600" /></a></span><span class="nowrap"> </span><span typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/File:Florence_2006_track.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6a/Florence_2006_track.png/150px-Florence_2006_track.png" decoding="async" width="150" height="150" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6a/Florence_2006_track.png/225px-Florence_2006_track.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6a/Florence_2006_track.png/300px-Florence_2006_track.png 2x" data-file-width="2700" data-file-height="2700" /></a></span></span></div></td></tr><tr><th scope="row" class="infobox-label">Duration</th><td class="infobox-data"><a href="/wiki/September_3" title="September 3">September 3</a> – <a href="/wiki/September_12" title="September 12">September 12</a></td></tr><tr><th scope="row" class="infobox-label">Peak intensity</th><td class="infobox-data">90 mph (150 km/h) <small>(1-min)</small>  974 <a href="/wiki/Bar_(unit)" title="Bar (unit)">mbar</a> (<a href="/wiki/Pascal_(unit)" title="Pascal (unit)">hPa</a>)</td></tr></tbody></table> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r9671799"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">See the main article: <a href="/wiki/Hurricane_Florence_(2006)" title="Hurricane Florence (2006)">Hurricane Florence (2006)</a></div> <p>Tropical Depression Six formed from an area of low pressure midway between Africa and the Lesser Antilles on 3 September. Initial strengthening of the depression was slow due to shearing wind conditions. Despite the moderate to high wind shear, it strengthened enough to become Tropical Storm Florence on the morning of 5 September. After becoming a tropical storm, Florence's wind field began to expand greatly; at one point tropical storm-force winds extended outward up to 405 miles from the center. With a disorganized structure and multiple circulation centers, Florence remained a weak tropical storm for several days, even after external conditions became favorable for strengthening. Around the evening of 8 September it resolved to a single center and steady strengthening resumed - "science had prevailed", as one forecaster remarked. On the morning of 10 September, Florence reached hurricane strength. Large swells, rip tide, and undertow were reported on Bermuda, the Leeward Islands, the Virgin Islands, and Hispaniola. Florence soon reached its peak as a Category 1 hurricane very near Bermuda, and became extratropical on 12 September, while still a hurricane. </p> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r9671870">.mw-parser-output .side-box{margin:4px 0;box-sizing:border-box;border:1px solid #aaa;font-size:88%;line-height:1.25em;background-color:var(--background-color-interactive-subtle,#f8f9fa);display:flow-root}.mw-parser-output .side-box-abovebelow,.mw-parser-output .side-box-text{padding:0.25em 0.9em}.mw-parser-output .side-box-image{padding:2px 0 2px 0.9em;text-align:center}.mw-parser-output .side-box-imageright{padding:2px 0.9em 2px 0;text-align:center}@media(min-width:500px){.mw-parser-output .side-box-flex{display:flex;align-items:center}.mw-parser-output .side-box-text{flex:1;min-width:0}}@media(min-width:720px){.mw-parser-output .side-box{width:238px}.mw-parser-output .side-box-right{clear:right;float:right;margin-left:1em}.mw-parser-output .side-box-left{margin-right:1em}}</style><style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r9671876">@media print{body.ns-0 .mw-parser-output .sistersitebox{display:none!important}}@media screen{html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .sistersitebox img[src*="Wiktionary-logo-en-v2.svg"]{background-color:white}}@media screen and (prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .sistersitebox img[src*="Wiktionary-logo-en-v2.svg"]{background-color:white}}</style><div class="side-box side-box-right plainlinks sistersitebox"><style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r8662964">.mw-parser-output .plainlist ol,.mw-parser-output .plainlist ul{line-height:inherit;list-style:none;margin:0;padding:0}.mw-parser-output .plainlist ol li,.mw-parser-output .plainlist ul li{margin-bottom:0}</style> <div class="side-box-flex"> <div class="side-box-image"><span class="noviewer" typeof="mw:File"><span><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/24/Wikinews-logo.svg/40px-Wikinews-logo.svg.png" decoding="async" width="40" height="22" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/24/Wikinews-logo.svg/60px-Wikinews-logo.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/24/Wikinews-logo.svg/80px-Wikinews-logo.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="759" data-file-height="415" /></span></span></div> <div class="side-box-text plainlist">Wikinews has related news: <div><ul><li><a href="https://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Bermuda_hit_hard_by_hurricane_Florence" class="extiw" title="wikinews:Bermuda hit hard by hurricane Florence"> Bermuda hit hard by hurricane Florence</a></li></ul></div></div></div> </div> <div style="clear:both;" class=""></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Hurricane_Gordon">Hurricane Gordon</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=2006_Atlantic_hurricane_season&veaction=edit&section=9" title="Change section: Hurricane Gordon" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>change</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=2006_Atlantic_hurricane_season&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section's source code: Hurricane Gordon"><span>change source</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r9689576"><table class="infobox" style="width: 24em;"><tbody><tr><td colspan="2" class="infobox-subheader" style="font-weight: bold;

By that time it was about 810 miles (1,304 km) east-southeast of Bermuda. It became a hurricane on 30 September, and passed about 280 miles (451 km) east of Bermuda before swinging northwards towards Newfoundland. As it was still a strong tropical storm near the Avalon Peninsula, tropical storm warnings were issued on 2 October due to the potential for high winds. Isaac passed 45 kilometres (28 mi) to the southeast of Cape Race late that afternoon. The Canadian Hurricane Centre reports that if Isaac had tracked just 50 to 100 km (30 to 60 miles) further north than it did, the St. John's area would have experienced much higher winds than the peak gust of 54 kilometres per hour (34 mph) it received. </p><p>At its closest approach to the Avalon Peninsula, Isaac was still tropical, and had maximum sustained winds of 50 knots (58 mph) and a minimum central pressure of 993 mbar. Strongest winds on land in Newfoundland were reported at Cape Race, where a maximum gust to 96 kilometres per hour (60 mph) with a sustained wind of 74 kilometres per hour (46 mph) was recorded. At Cape Pine, a peak wind was reported at 76 kilometres per hour (47 mph). However, due to Isaac's small size and fast forward speed, winds were lighter over most of the Avalon Peninsula. </p><p>Rainfall from Isaac was not reported to be higher than 25 millimetres (1 in) in most areas due to Isaac's speed and decreasing amount of moisture. The highest measured amount was 26 millimetres (1 in) at Cape Race, while Cape Pine reported 19 millimetres (1 in) and St. John's reported less than 10 millimetres (0 in). </p> <table class="wikitable" align="right" style="margin:0 0 0.5em 1em;"> <tbody><tr> <th colspan="7">ACE (10<sup>4</sup>kt²) – Storm: <a href="/w/index.php?title=Talk:2006_Atlantic_hurricane_season/ACE_calcs&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Talk:2006 Atlantic hurricane season/ACE calcs (not yet started)">Source</a> </th></tr> <tr> <th>1 </th> <td>24.3</td> <td><a href="/wiki/Hurricane_Helene_(2006)" title="Hurricane Helene (2006)">Helene</a> </td> <th rowspan="5"> </th> <th>6 </th> <td>2.76</td> <td><a href="/w/index.php?title=Tropical_Storm_Alberto_(2006)&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Tropical Storm Alberto (2006) (not yet started)">Alberto</a> </td></tr> <tr> <th>2 </th> <td>22.2</td> <td><a href="/wiki/Hurricane_Gordon_(2006)" title="Hurricane Gordon (2006)">Gordon</a> </td> <th>7 </th> <td>2.31</td> <td><a href="/wiki/Tropical_Storm_Debby_(2006)" title="Tropical Storm Debby (2006)">Debby</a> </td></tr> <tr> <th>3 </th> <td>9.60</td> <td><a href="/wiki/Hurricane_Florence_(2006)" title="Hurricane Florence (2006)">Florence</a> </td> <th>8 </th> <td>2.30</td> <td><a href="/wiki/Tropical_Storm_Beryl_(2006)" title="Tropical Storm Beryl (2006)">Beryl</a> </td></tr> <tr> <th>4 </th> <td>6.46</td> <td><a href="/wiki/Hurricane_Isaac_(2006)" title="Hurricane Isaac (2006)">Isaac</a> </td> <th>9 </th> <td>2.17</td> <td><a href="/wiki/Tropical_Storm_Chris_(2006)" title="Tropical Storm Chris (2006)">Chris</a> </td></tr> <tr> <th>5 </th> <td>5.72</td> <td><a href="/wiki/Hurricane_Ernesto_(2006)" class="mw-redirect" title="Hurricane Ernesto (2006)">Ernesto</a> </td> <th>10 </th> <td>0.645</td> <td><a href="/wiki/Unnamed_Tropical_Storm_(2006)" class="mw-redirect" title="Unnamed Tropical Storm (2006)">Unnamed</a> </td></tr> <tr> <th colspan="8">Total: 78.5 </th></tr></tbody></table> <p>strength. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="2006_storm_names">2006 storm names</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=2006_Atlantic_hurricane_season&veaction=edit&section=12" title="Change section: 2006 storm names" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>change</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=2006_Atlantic_hurricane_season&action=edit&section=12" title="Edit section's source code: 2006 storm names"><span>change source</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>These names will be used for storms that form in the North Atlantic in 2006.
