- L'huracà de Belize de 1931 va ser un huracà devastador de categoria 3 que va colpejar la ciutat de Belize el 10 de setembre de 1931 i deixava al seu pas unes 2.5000 víctimes mortals. Tanmateix, no es va acostar a la força de l'huracà Hattie de 1961, que segueix sent tant l'huracà més mortífer, com el desastre natural, en la història de Belize. A banda de malmetre la capital, també va devastar tota la costa nord del país. A principis de setembre, l'huracà es generà com una tempesta tropical a l'est de Barbados que es movia en direcció oest a través del Carib. La tempesta no es va reforçar més enllà de l'estatus de tempesta tropical durant els seus primers quatre dies, però s'intensificava ràpidament el 10 de setembre convertint-se en un gran huracà amb vents de 201 km/h vents quan colpejava la ciutat de Belize. La sobreintensitat de tempesta de l'huracà devastava aquesta ciutat costanera. El 10 de setembre és festa nacional a Belize on celebren la desfeta dels espanyols en la . Aquest fet i les dificultats de predir la trajectòria i la intensitat dels huracans en aquella època van contribuir en l'alt nombre de víctimes mortals. La tempesta llavors es va moure cap al golf de Campeche i feia una segona recalada prop de Veracruz, Mèxic, abans de dissipar-se interior enllà. (ca)
- The 1931 British Honduras hurricane was the deadliest hurricane in the history of British Honduras (known as Belize since 1973), killing an estimated 2,500 people. The hurricane was first detected as a tropical wave off the west coast of Africa on 29 August. Moving westward, the disturbance remained relatively weak until 6 September, when it was first classified as a tropical cyclone just west of the Windward Islands. The depression gradually intensified, reaching tropical storm intensity within the first six hours following tropical cyclogenesis. The cyclone intensified further to hurricane intensity by 8 September. Strengthening and organisation remained gradual until the storm reached the Gulf of Honduras, by which time it began to rapidly intensify, reaching Category 4 hurricane intensity on 10 September. The hurricane subsequently made landfall in Belize City with maximum sustained winds of 130 mph (215 km/h). Moving across the Yucatán Peninsula, the tropical cyclone weakened, and continued to do so when it moved across the Bay of Campeche. This track brought it to a second landfall north of Tampico, Mexico, as a tropical storm on 13 September. Once inland, the storm quickly weakened and dissipated later that day. Possibly due to celebrations of the anniversary of the defeat of Spanish conquerors by the British in 1798, there was little warning of the storm in British Honduras. At St. George's Caye, many structures were washed away by abnormally high tides and storm surge. Belize City was devastated, with the entire city being inundated with at least 5 ft (1.5 m) of water. Property on six streets was completely swept away, while overall 70% of the city was destroyed. Among the buildings severely damaged or demolished included many buildings and resident halls at St. John's College and the U.S. Embassy building; the Consul suffered fatal injuries during the collapse of the building. Further inland, severe damage to agriculture occurred. Overall, the storm left $7.5 million (1931 USD) in damage. (en)
