<span class="mw-page-title-main">Mediterranean tropical-like cyclone</span> Hurricane-like storms in the Mediterranean Sea

Mediterranean tropical-like cyclones, often referred to as medicanes but sometimes also as Mediterranean cyclones or as Mediterranean hurricanes, are meteorological phenomena occasionally observed over the Mediterranean Sea. On a few rare occasions, some storms have been observed reaching the strength of a Category 1 hurricane, on the Saffir–Simpson scale, and one storm has been recorded reaching Category 2 intensity. The main societal hazard posed by medicanes is not usually from destructive winds, but through life-threatening torrential rains and flash floods.

These are the partial results of the athletics competition at the 1951 Mediterranean Games taking place between 6 and 10 October in Alexandria, Greece.
