1920 Atlantic hurricane season | The 1920 Atlantic hurricane season featured tropical storms and hurricanes only in the month of September . Although no `` hurricane season '' was defined at the time , the present-day delineation of such is June 1 to November 30 . The first system , a hurricane , developed on September 7 while the last , a tropical depression , transitioned into an extratropical cyclone on October 27 . Of note , four of the six cyclones co-existed with another tropical cyclone during the season . Of the season 's six tropical cyclones , five became tropical storms and four strengthened into hurricanes . Furthermore , none of these strengthened into a major hurricane -- Category 3 or higher on the modern-day Saffir -- Simpson hurricane wind scale -- marking the seventh such occurrence since 1900 . The strongest hurricane of the season peaked as only as a strong Category 2 with winds of 110 mph ( 175 km/h ) . The second hurricane caused one death and $ 1.45 million ( 1920 USD ) in damage in Louisiana , the third left one fatality in North Carolina , and the fifth storm indirectly killed one person in Florida . The season 's activity was reflected with an accumulated cyclone energy ( ACE ) rating of 30 . ACE is , broadly speaking , a measure of the power of the hurricane multiplied by the length of time it existed , so storms that last a long time , as well as particularly strong hurricanes , have high ACEs . It is only calculated for full advisories on tropical systems at or exceeding 39 mph ( 63 km/h ) , which is tropical storm strength . __ TOC __ |

.3ds | 3DS is one of the file formats used by the Autodesk 3ds Max 3D modeling , animation and rendering software . It was the native file format of the old Autodesk 3D Studio DOS ( releases 1 to 4 ) , which was popular until its successor ( 3D Studio MAX 1.0 ) replaced it in April 1996 . Having been around since 1990 ( when the first version of 3D Studio DOS was launched ) , it has grown to become a de facto industry standard for transferring models between 3D programs , or for storing models for 3D resource catalogs ( along with OBJ , which is more frequently used as a model archiving file format ) . While the 3DS format aims to provide an import/export format , retaining only essential geometry , texture and lighting data , the related MAX format ( now superseded by the PRJ format ) also contains extra information specific to Autodesk 3ds Max , to allow a scene to be completely saved/loaded . |
