Peak Hurricane Season Is Here But Without Storms

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, explains that while hurricane season runs from June to November, the most dangerous and active period begins in August. According to Weather.com data, the overwhelming majority of storm activity and U.S. landfalls occurs between August and October, making it the critical window to monitor. Despite the slow start, historical patterns suggest the coming weeks may bring a sharp increase in storm formation and impact.
