The Atlantic hurricane season stretches from June through November, but it typically reaches its pinnacle in mid-September.
September 10 is the date on which the most tropical storms and hurricanes have been active in the Atlantic Basin, according to calculations from the National Hurricane Center, using data from 1944 through 2020.
As we've covered in a previous article, that's because all the favorable ingredients for hurricanes to develop and thrive overlap best in September over the widest expanse of the tropical Atlantic Basin.
But like any average, that doesn't hold true every season.
This September 10, there were no active tropical depressions, storms or hurricanes anywhere in the Atlantic Basin. In fact, it's been 13 days since the last one, Tropical Storm Fernand.
It isn't just a lack of active storms. There also weren't any areas the NHC was monitoring for development as of early morning on Sept. 10, 2025, the first September 10 that happened in at least 22 years of NHC records.
Just for fun, let's take a look back at the past several September 10 and list what was going on in the Atlantic Basin:
- 2024: Tropical Storm Francine was swirling in the western Gulf, and the NHC was watching two other areas for development
- 2023: Hurricane Lee and Tropical Storm Margot were in the central Atlantic, while the NHC also watched two other areas for development
- 2022: Hurricane Earl became a post-tropical cyclone off Newfoundland, Canada, as the NHC waited for a tropical wave to emerge off western Africa
- 2021: Hurricane Larry plowed through Newfoundland, Canada, as NHC monitored two other areas for development
- 2020: Tropical storms Paulette and Rene were in the central Atlantic as NHC monitored four other areas for development
