'''Hurricane Shary''' was a short-lived ] that stayed at sea in late October 2010. The eighteenth named storm and eleventh hurricane of the unusually active ], Shary originated from a weak area of ] associated with an upper-level ] located about 350 miles (565 km) southeast of ] in late October. Initially not expected to exceed winds of 50 mph (85 km/h), Shary unexpectedly intensified rather quickly, and was upgraded to a minimal hurricane on October 30, moving well to the east of Bermuda. Unfavorable surroundings subsequently surrounded the storm, and Shary quickly began to lose tropical characteristics. Later that day, Shary degenerated into a post-tropical cyclone, and the final advisory was issued by the ].

In late October, the ] (NHC) began to monitor an area of disorganized weather in association with a deep-layered ] located northeast of the northern ].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/gtwo/atl/201010271749/index.php?basin=atl&current_issuance=201010271749|title=Graphical Tropical Weather Outlook|date=October 27, 2010|accessdate=October 30, 2010|publisher=National Hurricane Center}}</ref> Supported by an ] retrograding to its southwest, the system generated moderate clusters of scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms. Convection enhanced as environmental conditions within its encounter became more favorable over time.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/gtwo/atl/201010272336/index.php?basin=atl&current_issuance=201010272336|title=Graphical Tropical Weather Outlook|date=October 27, 2010|accessdate=October 30, 2010|publisher=National Hurricane Center}}</ref> Around 1600 ] October 28, ] showed what appeared to be the formation of a ]. Shower and thunderstorm activity increased accordingly, and the NHC gave the system a high chance of developing into a tropical or ] cyclone.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/gtwo/atl/201010280546/index.php?basin=atl&current_issuance=201010280546|title=Graphical Tropical Weather Outlook|date=October 28, 2010|accessdate=October 30, 2010|publisher=National Hurricane Center}}</ref> At the time, the center of circulation remained poor; however, it became better defined later that day, with a stable amount of corresponding convection persisting.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/gtwo/atl/201010282347/index.php?basin=atl&current_issuance=201010282347|title=Graphical Tropical Weather Outlook|date=October 28, 2010|accessdate=October 30, 2010|publisher=National Hurricane Center}}</ref> In addition, a ] reported peak winds of 38&nbsp;mph (61&nbsp;km/h) at both 0000 UTC and 0200 UTC the next day. Although the upper low had remained adjacent, it was located well to the southwest of the considerably small associated ] — not quite a subtropical structure.<ref name=discuss001>{{cite web|author=Brown & Berg|publisher=National Hurricane Center|date=October 29, 2010|accessdate=October 30, 2010|title=Tropical Storm Shary Discussion One|url=http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/2010/al20/al202010.discus.001.shtml?}}</ref> The system was therefore designated as Tropical Storm ''Shary'' south of ], steered toward the northwest between the upper low and a mid-level ] to its northeast.<ref name=public001 /> The NHC also noted that Shary would be a relatively short-lived tropical cyclone due to a forecast merge with a ] to the north.<ref name=discuss001 />

During the morning, storm cloud patterns became less distorted while Shary continued to separate from the upper-level low. Although the center remained partially exposed, convection deepened significantly within the western ] over the next hours.<ref>{{cite web|author=Blake & Brennan|publisher=National Hurricane Center|date=October 29, 2010|accessdate=October 30, 2010|title=Tropical Storm Shary Discussion Two|url=http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/2010/al20/al202010.discus.002.shtml?}}</ref> However, northerly shear subsequently increased over the system due to the relocation of the upper low, shifting the inner-core convection south of the center and causing a considerable decrease in forward speed. Additionally, dry air began to wrap into the eastern and northeastern ]s, resulting in some convective erosion and intensification halting. Although the storm was expected to only strengthen slightly in response to marginally improved upper-level conditions, several ] showed Shary becoming a hurricane, which at the time the NHC regarded as "highly unlikely given the very strong shear forecast at that time."<ref>{{cite web|author=Stewart|publisher=National Hurricane Center|date=October 29, 2010|accessdate=October 30, 2010|title=Tropical Storm Shary Discussion Three|url=http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/2010/al20/al202010.discus.003.shtml?}}</ref> Nevertheless, data from a ] flight revealed an increase in maximum wind speeds; later that day, deep convection reignited, quickly expanding over eastern portions of the cyclone.<ref>{{cite web|author=Roberts & Brown|publisher=National Hurricane Center|date=October 29, 2010|accessdate=October 30, 2010|title=Tropical Storm Shary Discussion Five|url=http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/2010/al20/al202010.discus.005.shtml?}}</ref> During the overnight hours, convective activity further grew and deepened symmetrically near the center, supported by the development of a small ] as seen on microwave imagery. Although ] were far from supporting such intensity, the system was upgraded to a Category 1 hurricane on October 30 with winds set at 75&nbsp;mph (120&nbsp;km/h) — a case which the NHC described as a case of a small hurricane that would not have been observed before the invention of microwave satellite imagery. Upon reaching this intensity, Shary was accelerating considerably, resulting in a rapid northeastward motion across the Atlantic.<ref>{{cite web|author=Blake|publisher=National Hurricane Center|date=October 30, 2010|accessdate=October 30, 2010|title=Tropical Storm Shary Discussion Six|url=http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/2010/al20/al202010.discus.006.shtml?}}</ref>

Located just to the east of a strong ], the minimal hurricane continued to speed over progressively cooler waters. As such, Shary gradually lost its convective symmetry, though the small eye remained distinguishable in further microwave observation.<ref>{{cite web|author=Cangialosi|publisher=National Hurricane Center|date=October 30, 2010|accessdate=October 30, 2010|title=Tropical Storm Shary Discussion Six|url=http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/2010/al20/al202010.discus.007.shtml?}}</ref> Within moments, rapid interaction with the front began to take place, suggesting the system was finally entering an ]. Subsequent data from cyclone ] indicated Shary had become post-tropical about 530 miles (885 km) south-southeast of ], and the NHC discontinued advisories. Early on October 31, the extratropical remnants of Hurricane Shary were completely absorbed by the same neighboring system.<ref>{{cite web|author=Cangialosi|publisher=National Hurricane Center|date=October 30, 2010|accessdate=October 30, 2010|title=Tropical Storm Shary Discussion Eight|url=http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/2010/al20/al202010.discus.008.shtml?}}</ref>

== Preparations and impact ==
Immediately following the first advisory on Tropical Storm Shary on October&nbsp;28, the ] issued a ] for the entire island.<ref name=public001>{{cite web|author=Brown & Berg|publisher=National Hurricane Center|year=2010|accessdate=October 30, 2010|title=Tropical Storm Shary Public Advisory One|url=http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/2010/al20/al202010.public.001.shtml?}}</ref> In response to the presence of Shary, ] canceled flights from the ] to Bermuda. ], a low-lying bridge that connects ] to the mainland, was to be shut down at 7:00&nbsp;p.m. local time on October&nbsp;29. Ferry service between ] and ] was temporarily suspended.<ref>{{cite web|author=Staff Writer|publisher=Go Jamaica|date=October 29, 2010|accessdate=October 30, 2010|title=Flights and ferry service canceled as Tropical Storm Shary heads for Bermuda|url=http://www.webcitation.org/5ts1JCvgG}}</ref> Residents were also urged to secure their boats as a safety precaution.<ref>{{cite web|author=Elizabeth Roberts|publisher=The Houston Chronicle|date=October 29, 2010|accessdate=October 30, 2010|title=Tropical Storm Shary approaches Bermuda|url=http://www.webcitation.org/5ts1Tg2l2}}</ref> The tropical storm warning was later canceled during the evening of October&nbsp;29 as Shary no longer posed a threat to Bermuda.<ref>{{cite web|author=Roberts & Brown|publisher=National Hurricane Center|date=October 29, 2010|accessdate=October 30, 2010|title=Tropical Storm Shary Public Advisory Five|url=http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/2010/al20/al202010.public.005.shtml?}}</ref>
Since Shary turned away from Bermuda before directly striking the island, its effects were limited.
