Raar hoe je als je op je naam Googled ineens iets heel anders tegenkomt dat je eigenlijk zocht, en dat dat dan toch grappig is… nou ja, grappig… moet ik hier blij mee zijn… ben ik zo stormachtig?

Tropical Storm Chantal

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The name Chantal has been used for five tropical cyclones in the Atlantic Ocean.

  • Hurricane Chantal (1983), formed near Bermuda but missed it, dying in the open sea
  • Hurricane Chantal (1989), formed north of the Yucatán, made landfall as a Category 1 storm in Texas, causing 13 deaths, including 10 on an oil rig construction ship off Louisiana; $100 million damage reported
  • Tropical Storm Chantal (1995), never threatened land, died out several hundred miles west of Ireland
  • Tropical Storm Chantal (2001), became a depression but degenerated, then passed over Trinidad (causing two deaths) and strengthened into a tropical storm before striking Belize, causing $5 million damage there
  • Tropical Storm Chantal (2007), short-lived storm which caused moderate flooding damage in southeastern Newfoundland

Chantal also has been used for one tropical cyclone in the South-West Indian Ocean.

  • Tropical Storm Chantal (1961)
