Where Are We In The 2013 Hurricane Season?
August 4, 2013
There have only been four named tropical systems so far this hurricane season — Andrea, Barry, Chantal and Dorian. But June and July tend to be the less active months of the season.
Climatologically speaking, August is the month where tropical cyclone activity begins to ramp up.
“This does not mean we will get a tropical cyclone along the Gulf Coast, but it is a good preparedness reminder,” according to the National Weather Service in Mobile.
