Hurricane Lester was a small but powerful tropical cyclone that caused heavy flooding in Central America and southern Mexico in October 1998. Lester was the fifteenth tropical cyclone, twelfth named storm and eighth hurricane of the 1998 Pacific hurricane season. Lester originated from a tropical wave that emerged off the coast of Africa on September 29. Under favorable conditions, the storm was classified as a tropical depression on October 15. The depression was upgraded to a tropical storm later that day and a hurricane on October 16. After undergoing fluctuations in intensity, Lester reached peak winds of 115 mph (185 km/h), a Category 3 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale. After several days, it degenerated into a tropical storm on October 26, and dissipated shortly after.

  • Hurricane Lester was a small but powerful tropical cyclone that caused heavy flooding in Central America and southern Mexico in October 1998. Lester was the fifteenth tropical cyclone, twelfth named storm and eighth hurricane of the 1998 Pacific hurricane season. Lester originated from a tropical wave that emerged off the coast of Africa on September 29. Under favorable conditions, the storm was classified as a tropical depression on October 15. The depression was upgraded to a tropical storm later that day and a hurricane on October 16. After undergoing fluctuations in intensity, Lester reached peak winds of 115 mph (185 km/h), a Category 3 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale. After several days, it degenerated into a tropical storm on October 26, and dissipated shortly after. The hurricane made its closest approach to land on October 28, producing moderate winds and heavy rainfall. A mudslide triggered by the precipitation killed two children, although damage is unknown.

  • 飓风莱斯特(英語:Hurricane Lester)是1998年太平洋飓风季形成的第15个热带气旋,第12场获命名的风暴和第八场飓风。系统源自9月29日离开非洲西海岸进入大西洋的东风波,由于外界环境不利,直至10月15日才成为热带低气压。气旋当天就升级成热带风暴,次日又达到飓风标准。经过一段时间的强度波动,莱斯特达到风力时速185公里的最高强度,在萨菲尔-辛普森飓风等级已属三级飓风标准。风暴此后逐渐减弱,于10月26日降级成热带风暴,并在不久后完全消散。 气旋自始至终没有登陆,但10月18日行进至距陆地最近的位置时产生暴雨和中等强度风力。降水引发泥石流,夺走两名孩童的生命,风暴整体引起的损失数额缺乏统计。 (zh)
