Tropical Depression Ten / 10L (2011)

Tropical Depression Ten was a short-lived and weak tropical cyclone that was the tenth system of the record-breaking 2005 Atlantic hurricane season. It formed on August 13 from a tropical wave that emerged from the west coast of Africa on August 8. As a result of strong wind shear, the depression remained weak and did not strengthen beyond tropical depression status. It degenerated on August 14, although its remnants partially contributed to the formation of the tropical depression that eventually became Hurricane Katrina. Thus, it is often referred to as "the precursor to Katrina". The cyclone had no effect on land, and did not directly result in any fatalities or damage.
