Atlantic tropical storm in 1982

Tropical Storm Beryl was a deadly tropical storm which killed 3 people when it passed just south of the Cape Verde Islands. Beryl, the second named storm of the 1982 Atlantic hurricane season, developed out of a well organized tropical wave which was first noted near Dakar, Senegal on August 27. The wave was declared a tropical depression the next morning and upgraded it to a tropical storm later that same day. Beryl passed 35 mile (56 km) south of the island of Brava, Cape Verde by August 29. Beryl gradually intensified as it moved away from the islands and peaked just short of hurricane status on September 1 with maximum sustained winds of After peaking, Beryl quickly weakened to a tropical depression by the night of September 2. The depression continued on a general path towards the west until is dissipated on September 6 while located to the north of the Leeward Islands.

Tropical Storm Beryl originated from a well developed tropical wave which was first noted off the eastern coast of Africa on August 27. The wave quickly organized and strengthened into Tropical Depression Two on the morning of August 28. The depression continued to intensify while moving towards the west northwest, and was upgraded to a tropical storm that night, receiving the name Beryl. Tropical Storm Beryl that night while moving towards the west northwest. On the morning of August 29, Beryl passed about 35 mi (55 km) south of the island of Brava, Cape Verde with winds of After passing by the Cape Verde Islands, Beryl gradually intensified while moving steadily towards the northwest. On August 31, satellites depicted an eye feature developing within the deep convection of the storm. However, there was uncertainty in the intensity of the storm as the Dvorak technique—a system used to estimate the intensity of a tropical cyclone—rendered a T4.2, which corresponds to an intensity of But, since the eye feature was located on the western side of the deep convection and the storm was slightly asymmetric, the intensity was held just below hurricane status. Beryl peaked just below hurricane status, with winds reaching , and a minimum central pressure of Only four hours later, strong wind shear from the west displaced the convection east of the center, leaving the low level circulation exposed.

While crossing through the Cape Verde islands, Beryl's rain and wind to caused moderate to heavy damage. The island of Brava, located on the southwest portion of the archipelago, was struck the hardest. In all, the storm killed 3 islanders and caused $3 million in damage (1982 USD). In the period after the storm's passage, the United States provided humanitarian aid and economic assistance to the country, helping the archipelago to reverse the effects of Beryl.
