october 8
originating from a tropical wave that emerged off africa on september 22, matthew developed into a tropical storm just east of the lesser antilles on september 28. it became a hurricane north of venezuela and colombia on september 29, before undergoing explosive intensification, ultimately reaching category 5 intensity on october 1 at just 13.4°n latitude – the lowest latitude ever recorded for a storm of this intensity in the atlantic basin, breaking the record set by hurricane ivan in 2004. matthew weakened slightly and fluctuated in intensity while making a northward turn toward the greater antilles, remaining a strong category 4 hurricane as it made its first landfall over haiti's tiburon peninsula early on october 4, and then a second one in cuba later that day. matthew weakened somewhat but re-intensified as it tracked northwest, making landfall in the northern bahamas. the storm then paralleled the coast of the southeastern united states over the next 36 hours, gradually weakening while remaining just offshore before making its fourth and final landfall over the cape romain national wildlife refuge near mcclellanville, south carolina as a category 1 hurricane on the morning of october 8. matthew re-emerged into the atlantic shortly afterward, eventually completing its transition into an extratropical cyclone as it turned away from cape hatteras, north carolina on october 9. the remnants of matthew continued to accelerate towards canada where it was absorbed by a cold front.
