Tropical Storm Dean was a short-lived storm that formed in late July 1995 and lasted into early August.[1] It was the fourth named storm of the 1995 Atlantic hurricane season. It spent most of its life as a tropical depression, and briefly gained tropical storm status before its landfall on the Texas coast on July 30. After landfall, it dissipated over central Texas on August 2.[1] The impacts from Dean were minimal, mainly due to heavy rain in Oklahoma and Texas that caused localized coastal and inland flooding.[2] Two F0 Tornadoes touched down in Texas as a result of Dean's landfall.[3] Also, Twenty families had to be evacuated in Chambers County, due to flooding in the area.[1] One fatality was recorded as a result of flooding in Oklahoma.[2] Several highways were flooded out in Oklahoma, which impeded travel in the state.[2] In addition approximately $500,000 (1995 U.S. dollars) worth of damage was recorded in the aftermath of Dean.[1]
