[241] On the evening of September 15, it began to weaken and undergo extratropical transition,[242] which it completed the next day.[243]. The Hurricane Center is also tracking two tropical waves that have just started to cross the Atlantic from Africa. [288], The NHC began to monitor a tropical wave over Africa at 00:00 UTC on September 7. [333] The next day, hurricane hunters found a closed circulation, and as thunderstorms persisted near the center, the NHC initiated advisories on Tropical Depression Twenty-Two at 23:00 UTC on September 17. Select a map … [251] Three hours later, Rene made landfall on Boa Vista Island with 1-minute sustained winds of 40 mph (65 km/h) and a pressure of 1001 mbars (29.56 inHg). [132] New York City's power utility said it saw more outages from Isaias than from any storm except Hurricane Sandy in 2012. Delta is now threatening the U.S. Gulf Coast. There's an overlap of favorable factors in early-mid September, including ocean water reaching its highest temperature, the atmosphere's ability to generate thunderstorms hitting its peak, hostile shearing winds declining to a minimum and a parade of disturbances known as tropical waves acting as seeds for development that, while peaking in July, are numerous in September. [113] As the hurricane approached landfall, local officials underscored the reality of the coronavirus when warning residents living in flood-prone neighborhoods about the prospect of evacuation. [414] The names not retired from this list will be used again in the 2026 season. [63] Contrary to predictions, the low moved south into the Gulf Stream in the afternoon of June 22, and new thunderstorm activity began to fire near the circulation. [198] After maintaining its intensity for 24 hours, northwesterly wind shear of 50 knots weakened the storm back to a tropical depression. In the United States, Isaias triggered a large tornado outbreak that prompted the issuance of 109 tornado warnings across 12 states, including one for Hampton Roads and another for Dover, Delaware. [160] En route to the Windward Islands, satellite imagery revealed that the system began to close off its low-level circulation center (LLCC) with convection firing up around it, and subsequently the NHC began issuing advisories on Tropical Depression Thirteen on August 20. [96] However, the storm's impact ended up being significantly smaller than originally anticipated. All rights reserved. On May 31, the NHC began to note that Tropical Depression Two-E in the Eastern Pacific, later to be Tropical Storm Amanda, would have the potential to redevelop in the Bay of Campeche.

After passing east of North Carolina, the system reached peak winds of 60 mph (95 km/h) as deep convection partially covered the center. One person was killed in Praia on September 12 from the tropical wave. [174] At 06:00 UTC, Laura made landfall near Cameron, Louisiana, with 1-minute sustained winds of 150 mph (240 km/h) and a central pressure of 938 mbar (27.70 inHg), tying the 1856 Last Island hurricane as the strongest landfalling hurricane on record in the state of Louisiana since 1851. It includes their duration, names, damage, and death totals. Read our cookie policy and Google’s policy to learn more. [168] Later that day, however, Laura managed to resume strengthening.

[169] Early on August 25, Laura entered the Gulf of Mexico and became a Category 1 hurricane at 12:15 UTC on the same day. The interaction of an upper-level trough and a stalled front over the Florida Straits led to the formation of a low-pressure area in that region on May 15. [267] Over the next day, convection rapidly increased, became better organized, and formed a broad area of low-pressure on September 11. [224] The wave organized and formed an area of low pressure on September 6, but convective activity remained disorganized. [59] Heavy rains and damage were reported within the warning areas during Cristobal's passage and the storm caused an estimated US$665 million in damage. [339] This caused upwelling and the continued negative effects of dry air and wind shear caused the storm to become disorganized. The Weather Company’s primary journalistic mission is to report on breaking weather news, the environment and the importance of science to our lives. [342] It then became nearly stationary again before turning east and weakening some more, causing the NHC to issue their final advisory and giving future advisory responsibilities to the Weather Prediction Center (WPC). September featured the formations of tropical storms Rene, Vicky, Wilfred, and Beta, Subtropical Storm Alpha, and hurricanes Nana, Paulette, Sally, and Teddy. The storm made landfall on Gulf Shores, Alabama on the 16 year anniversary of Hurricane Ivan making landfall on the same location in 2004.

Of the 25 named storms, 10 made landfall in the contiguous United States, breaking the record of nine set in 1916. Tropical Storm Omar was churning about 225 miles east of Cape Hatteras with sustained winds of 40 mph, as of 5 p.m. Tuesday. It's important to note that impacts (particularly heavy rain, high surf, coastal flooding, winds) with any tropical cyclone usually spread beyond its forecast path. [207] The wave moved into the southern Caribbean, where conditions were more favorable for development. [220] Hundreds of acres of banana and plantation crops were destroyed in Belize, where a peak wind speed of 61 mph (98 km/h) was reported at a weather station in Carrie Bow Cay. Live Satellite. Street flooding occurred as far away as Nicaragua. [362][363] In Spain, the front associated with Alpha caused a train to derail in Madrid (no one was seriously injured), while lightning storms on Ons Island caused a forest fire. [24] On July 16, The Weather Company released an updated forecast, calling for 20 named storms, 8 hurricanes, and 4 major hurricanes. [293][294] It continued to intensify as it became better organized, with an eye beginning to form late on September 15. [291] It struggled to organize for over a day due to its large size and moderate wind shear. The organization posted significantly heightened probabilities for hurricanes tracking through the Caribbean and hurricanes striking the U.S. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has warned coastal communities to prepare for an above-normal 2020 Atlantic hurricane season, with as many as 19 named storms, of which as many as 10 could become hurricanes. At 15:00 UTC on June 24, Dolly became a post-tropical cyclone, with any remaining convection displaced well to the system's south and the remaining circulation exposed. [265] The warning was discontinued at 21:00 UTC on September 8. After a period of inactivity, Tropical Depression Twenty-Five developed in the western Caribbean Sea on October 2 before further strengthening into Tropical Storm Gamma early the next day and impacting the Yucatan Peninsula the day after that. [74] The extratropical remnants of the storm would continue to travel eastward for several days over Northern Europe before finally dissipating over the Baltic Sea. [nb 1] With 25 named storms, it is the second most active Atlantic hurricane season on record, behind only the 2005 Atlantic hurricane season. For example, Delta would be listed as "Delta 2020" but still be used in a future year if the main list was exhausted. Its center reformed under a large burst of deep convection and it strengthened from a 65 mph (105 km/h) tropical storm to a 90 mph (140 km/h) Category 1 hurricane in just one and a half hours.
