Hurricane Joaquin formed on September 27, 2015 in the Atlantic Ocean. Joaquin was Category Four (only 2mph under Category 5 speeds) and struck the Bahamas for several days.
"At one point Joaquin saw a pressure drop of 57 millibars in about 39 hours, going from a strong tropical storm to a Category 4 hurricane in the process. Hurricane Joaquin rapidly intensified as wind shear – harmful to the intensification of tropical cyclones – diminished, allowing Joaquin's core convection to feed off the warm water near the central Bahamas. "
