For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico: No tropical cyclones formed in the Atlantic basin in the month of November. Based on a 30-year climatology (1991-2020), a tropical storm forms in November once every year or two, and a hurricane forms once every two years. A disturbance (Potential Tropical Cyclone Twenty-Two) caused heavy rains and flooding across portions of Jamaica, eastern Cuba, and Hispaniola during the middle part of the month, but the system did not become a tropical cyclone. Overall, the 2023 Atlantic hurricane season had above-normal activity in terms of the number of named storms but a normal amount of activity in terms of the number of hurricanes and major hurricanes. In 2023, 20 storms of at least tropical storm strength formed, of which 7 became hurricanes and 3 became major hurricanes (category 3 or higher on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale). This compares to the long-term (1991-2020) averages of 14 named storms, 7 hurricanes, and 3 major hurricanes. In terms of Accumulated Cyclone Energy (ACE), which measures the strength and duration of tropical storms and hurricanes, activity in the basin in 2023 was about 20 percent above average compared to the long-term (1991-2020) mean. Reports on individual cyclones, when completed, are available at the National Hurricane Center website at www.hurricanes.gov/data/tcr/index.php?season=2023&basin=atl Summary Table Name Dates Max Wind (mph) ----------------------------------------------------------- Unnamed STS 16-17 Jan 70* TS Arlene 1-3 Jun 40* TS Bret 19-24 Jun 70* TS Cindy 22-26 Jun 60* H Don 14-24 Jul 75* TS Emily 20-21 Aug 50* MH Franklin 20 Aug- 1 Sep 150 TS Gert 19- 4 Sep 60* TS Harold 21-23 Aug 50 MH Idalia 26-31 Aug 130 TS Jose 29 Aug- 1 Sep 60 TS Katia 1- 4 Sep 60 MH Lee 5-16 Sep 165 H Margot 7-17 Sep 90 H Nigel 15-22 Sep 100 TS Ophelia 22-24 Sep 70 TS Philippe 23 Sep- 6 Oct 50 TS Rina 28 Sep- 1 Oct 50* TS Sean 11-15 Oct 45 H Tammy 18-29 Oct 105 TD Twenty-One 23-24 Oct 30 ----------------------------------------------------------- * Denotes a storm for which the post-storm analysis is complete. $$ Hurricane Specialist Unit
