title: An Analysis of the Synoptic Dynamic and Hydrologic Character of the Black Sea Cyclone Falchion
abstract: In the Mediterranean and occasionally in the Black Sea, low-pressure systems with the character of both mid-latitude and tropical cyclones can form. These hybrid storms are called subtropical storms, subtropical depressions, medistorms/medicanes, or tropical-like cyclones (TLC). A strong low-pressure system given the name Falchion developed in northern part of the Black Sea during 11–20 August 2021. This storm was blamed for damage and more than 30 casualties in the nations bordering the region.
