A cluster of thunderstorms developed on the east side of Hurricane Keith on October 1st.  Moving
northward, it drifted across Cuba into the southeast Gulf of Mexico.  Reconnaisance aircraft flew into
the system a couple times, and could not find a closed circulation.  Just before moving inland into
southwestern Florida on the afternoon of the 3rd, the wind field finally closed off, and the subtropical
depression moved northeast across Florida, dropping a swath of heavy rainfall across Miami-Dade
and Broward counties.  It eventually moved northeast off the coast of Cape Canaveral, and acquired
subtropical storm intensity.  After nearly becoming a tropical system with winds close into the center
and a smaller wind field during the morning of the 6th, upper level winds out of the west and northwest
sheared the system, and it eventually moved northeastward off New England as an extratropical low.
  The track of the storm is located below, denoted every six hours, using Universal Coorinated Time.
For reference, the time 1200 GMT is the same as 8:00 a.m. EDT.
 

The graphics below show the storm total rainfall for Leslie.  Note the maxima across southeast
Florida, well to the east of the track.  The track itself is roughly parallel to the two inch isohyet.
Storm totals were derived from real-time surface observations, and from totals provided by the
Miami Forecast Office web site.
