Atlantic Basin Logs Zero Hurricanes by Sept 21 for First Time Since 1914

World29 days ago

No North Atlantic hurricanes formed between the start of the season and September 21, marking a 112 year gap since the last such occurrence. This absence of storm activity is the first time the region has remained hurricane free by this date since 1914, which constitutes the quietest eastern hurricane season of the satellite era.

High wind shear driven by El Niño suppressed the development of tropical systems in the Atlantic Basin throughout the summer. These atmospheric conditions inhibited storm growth, keeping the basin historically quiet as meteorological agencies continue to monitor the season.
