It’s been 18 days since the Atlantic basin has seen any active system (tropical depression, tropical storm, or hurricane), an unprecedented dry spell through what is traditionally the most active stretch of the hurricane season.
The tropical wave we’ve been previewing all week has finally emerged off the coast of Africa and is expected to gradually develop deeper into next week as it passes harmlessly over the open Atlantic.
Wednesday is the traditional peak of the hurricane season, the day on which history says we’re most likely to find a named storm in the Atlantic.
Atlantic hurricane season activity traditionally peaks on or around September 10th, the date around which you’re most likely to find an active named storm.
