Best Answer

Tornadoes are not given names, and a quick search doesn't come up with any significant tornadoes in that area at that time. There were no tropical systems in May of 1998, but in August Bonnie did hit the coast of North Carolina, influencing areas much further inland such as Clemmons in the process.

What part of a storm has the lowest surface air pressure?

The center or the "eye". Think of the Hurricane as a vortex that is sucking things up like a tornado. The winds are so powerful that you don't really see it sucking. But that is why the sea rises as it approaches the coast. The low pressure is causing the water level to rise higher.

I personally think that there will NOT be a zombie apocalypse. On the Mayan Ca lander ,it says that the world will end in December 21,2012.

What features classify a large-scale weather event?

2 large-scale weather events that I can think of would be hurricanes and tornadoes. In order for a tropical storm to be a hurricane, it must sustain winds of 75+ MPH. Hurricanes are classified by category on the saffir Simpson scale. Should a hurricane have sustained winds of 156+ MPH, that would be considered a Category 5 Hurricane. Tornadoes are classified on the Fujita scale based on the amount of damage the tornado causes and the wind speed that the tornado reaches.
