Tropical Storm Isaac was a relatively weak tropical storm that formed during the 2018 Atlantic hurricane season. It affected parts of the Caribbean, including the Lesser Antilles and Puerto Rico, before dissipating without causing significant damage.
Hurricane Isaac struck the Lesser Antilles, Haiti, the Dominican Republic and Cuba as a tropical storm and struck Louisiana as a category 1 hurricane.
Tropical storms are named according to a predetermined list of names for each year. When a new storm forms, it gets the next name on the list. The storm we know as Isaac was the ninth tropical storm in the 2012 Atlantic hurricane season and Isaac was the ninth name on the list.
Every year there is an assigned list of names for the tropical storms sorted in alphabetical order. Each time a new tropical storm forms it gets the next name on the list. The storm we call Isaac was the 9th tropical storm of the 2012 Atlantic hurricane season and so it was given the 9th name on the list: Isaac.
No. First Isaac isn't even a hurricane yet (as of August 27, 2012). It is still a tropical storm. Even though Isaac is a very large storm it is still not as large as Katrina. Based on forecasts Isaac probably won't get any stronger than a category 2 hurricane. Katrina was a category 5.
Hurricane Andrew obviously started as a Tropical storm . every single hurricane starts as a tropical storm hurricanes can sometimes go from a tropical storm to A Up from hurricane to a tropical storm very quickly . but the wind speed to start a hurricane is 74 anything less is a tropical storm
The storm name after Isaac is Joyce. Tropical Storm Joyce formed soon after Isaac did and dissipated within a couple days without causing any damage.
So far, as of August 27, 2012 not hurricanes have hit the U.S. Currently, however, Tropical Storm Isaac is expected to strike the U.S. as a hurricane. It is also possible that other hurricanes will hit the U.S. in 2012 but we don't know what the names will be.
