Knowing exactly where and how hard a hurricane will strike is a goal
many researchers are trying to achieve through numerical modeling.
This study investigates the triggering mechanism of convection and its impact on the development of Hurricane Charley between August 13 and 14, 2004. In addition, the track, inteSnsity, and precipitation distribution were studied to determine their role in triggering.
