Adrian, the first tropical storm of the season in the eastern Pacific, became the first hurricane to hit El Salvador when it came ashore on Friday, May 19, 2005, between Acajutla and Puerto La Libertad west of San Salvador.
Adrian was a minimal hurricane when it made landfall. Thes torm had winds of 120 kilometers per hour (75 mph) when it madelandfall, but it quickly weakened and dissipated as it moved inland over central Honduras.
This was the same region affected by Hurricane Mitchin 1998, when 10,000 people died in the devastation. Unlike Mitch, Adrian was responsible for just two deaths in Guatemala as a result of a mudslide.
Unlike Mitch, Adrian has something called forward motion
