has gloss | eng: Hurricane Noel was a short-lived hurricane in the 2001 Atlantic hurricane season. The fourteenth tropical storm and eighth hurricane of the season, Noel developed as a subtropical cyclone from a frontal low on November 4 to the west of the Azores. It moved northward, and following an increase in deep convection it transitioned in Hurricane Noel on November 5. Noel quickly weakened as it entered an area of cooler waters and higher wind shear, and it became an extratropical cyclone on November 6 to the southeast of Newfoundland. The extratropical remnant of Noel was absorbed by a larger extratropical storm which absorbed the remnants of Hurricane Michelle. The low intensified as it moved westward into Atlantic Canada, reaching pressures as low as 946 mbar. The storm turned to the northeast and emerged into the Atlantic Ocean on November 8. |
