副熱帶風暴阿爾伯託在佛羅里達登陸

SubtropicAl storm Alberto, the first named storm of the 2018 hurricane season, made landfall Monday afternoon near Laguna Beach, Florida.

Alberto is bringing heavy rain and flash floods along parts of the Florida Panhandle.

Alberto's top winds are 75 kilometers per hour. The storm is expected to dump as much as 30 centimeters of rain on parts of Florida, Alabama and Georgia.

But Alberto is likely to be a fast-moving, short-lived storm. Forecasters predict it will denigrate into what they call a "remnant low" by the time it moves inland toward the Tennessee Valley Tuesday afternoon.

The Atlantic hurricane season lasts from June 1 until the end of November.

Experts predict 10 to 16 named storms this year with up to nine developing into hurricanes, including as many as four major hurricanes.

Last year was an exceptionally busy hurricane season, with Hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria devastating Puerto Rico, Houston, Texas, and the Florida Gulf Coast.2018年颶風季節的首個被命名的風暴“副熱帶風暴阿爾伯託”星期一下午在佛羅里達州拉古納海灘附近登陸。

阿爾伯託攜帶着暴雨和陣發洪水侵襲了佛羅里達州的狹長地帶。

風暴阿爾伯託的最高風速爲每小時75公里。風暴預計將爲佛羅里達、阿拉巴馬和喬治亞州部分地區帶來多達30釐米的降雨。

但是阿爾伯託可能是一場快速移動，過程很短的風暴。氣象預報估計，這場風暴星期二下午向田納西河谷移動時減弱爲他們所稱的“殘留低氣壓”。

大西洋的颶風季節一般從6月1日持續到11月底。

專家們預計今年會有10到16個被命名的風暴，可能有多達九場風暴會發展成爲颶風，其中包括多達四場嚴重颶風。

去年的颶風季節風暴罕見地頻繁發生，颶風哈維、艾爾瑪和瑪利亞讓波多黎各、休斯頓、德克薩斯和佛羅里達海灣沿岸遭受重大損失。
