        1998 Atlantic Tropical Storms: Views from the NOAA Satellites
is a technical report produced by, and available from, the National Climatic
Data Center (NCDC). This annual report is a preliminary summary of the 1998
Atlantic Hurricane season. It provides a synopsis of each named tropical
storm, using textual information obtained from the National Hurricane
Center&apos;s Summary of the 1998 Atlantic Season report and the National 
Weather
Service&apos;s Preliminary Storm Data reports. Selected satellite and doppler
radar imagery were used for key times of each storm. The tables of station
precipitation data were created from NWS cooperative and airport stations.
The numbers for deaths and damages were obtained from several sources
including the NHC Preliminary Hurricane Reports, Federal Emergency Management
Agency (FEMA), and state emergency management agencies. These numbers are
subject to revision. The satellite images within this report along with many
more tropical storm images are on-line under the Satellite Imagery section
at http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/oa/satellite.html.
