	Reference.com/Encyclopedia/1980 Atlantic hurricane season
		The most notable storm was Hurricane Allen, a powerful Category 5 hurricane that travelled across the Caribbean and the Gulf of Mexico, causing widespread damage and hundreds of deaths.
		Allen was one of the strongest Atlantic hurricanes of record, with maximum sustained winds at 190 mph at its peak.
		Hurricane Earl was the first of a short series of Cape Verde-type hurricanes to form in early September.

	Historic Hurricanes--Some Of The Most Powerful Storms On Record.
		Hurricane Allen--The first named storm of the 1980 Atlantic Hurricane Season, Allen became a Category Five hurricane on three separate occasions, and is ranked as one of the strongest storms ever recorded in the Atlantic.
		Hurricane Gilbert--The most powerful storm ever recorded in the Atlantic with winds of 200 mph, and a central pressure of 26.28 inches of Hg, Gilbert came ashore in the Yucatan, and then proceeded into the Gulf of Mexico before hitting the Northern Mexican town of Matamoros with only 120 mph winds.
		Hurricane Grace--Contrary to what was said in the movie, The Perfect Storm, Grace was only a Category Two Hurricane, but it would combine with a mid-latitude cyclone to form what would be known as the "Perfect Storm" in Meteorological terms during the final days of October, 1991.

	Summary of the 2005 Atlantic Hurricane Season
		In summarizing the 2004 Atlantic Hurricane Season, I had mentioned that the 2004 season was a big wake up call to many living along the coast from Texas to Maine.
		The 2005 Atlantic Hurricane Season was certainly a record breaker in not only the basic shear numbers of 28 named storms, 15 hurricanes, and 7 major hurricanes, but also in other areas as well.
		Hurricane Rita became the fourth strongest storm on record with 897 mb, which surpassed Hurricane Allen in 1980, which deepened to 899 mb.

	Climate Prediction Center - Atlantic Hurricane Outlook Update
		The season is also expected to be slightly less active than previously forecast on 22 May 2006, when 13-16 Named Storms, 8-10 hurricanes, and 4-6 major hurricanes were predicted.
		An important measure of the total seasonal activity is NOAA’s ACE index, which accounts for the collective intensity and duration of Atlantic named storms and hurricanes during a given hurricane season.
		Hurricane seasons during 1995-2005 have averaged 15 named storms, 8.5 hurricanes, and 4 major hurricanes, with an average ACE index of 179% of the median.

	Hurricane - FAQ
		The extreme impacts from Hurricanes Marilyn (1995), Opal (1995), Fran (1996), Georges (1998) and Mitch (1998) in the United States and throughout the Caribbean attest to the high amounts of Atlantic hurricane activity lately.
		We have not observed a long-term increase in the intensity or frequency of Atlantic hurricanes.
		Hurricane Andrew's eyewall had less than 10 strikes per hour from the time it was over the Bahamas until after it made landfall along Louisiana, with several hours with no cloud-to-ground lightning at all (Molinari et al.

	Weather Doctor's Weather History 2005: A Record Atlantic Hurricane Season
		With the official ending of the 2005 Atlantic Hurricane Season on November 30th, residents of the Atlantic basin, which includes the Carribean Sea and Gulf of Mexico, are breathing a sigh of relief and hopes that the season is actually over.
		The only previous end-of-year storm was Hurricane Alice which became both the latest and the earliest hurricane on record in the Atlantic when it became a hurricane on December 31, 1954 and battered the Leeward Islands with winds of 85 mph (136 km/h) on January 1, 1955.
		Unfortunately, the 2005 Hurricane Season will be remembered as a deadly season, the deadliest in the Atlantic since 1780 (2800-3000 estimated deaths) and the deadliest US hurricane season since 1928 with 1300-1400 lives lost.

	The Weather Factory - Cydones of the Sea
		On a vastly larger scale, the cyclones known in the Atlantic region as hurricanes are also born of warm surface water.
		Atlantic hurricanes, the ones that plague the Caribbean and Eastern United States every year from June to November, are born as clusters of thunderstorms in the tropical seas west of Africa.
		At 74 mph and greater, it is a full-fledged hurricane.

		Hurricane Mitch hit Central America at a critical moment in its history, during a period of hope, but at a time of difficult transitions.
		The hurricane season which normally occurs between July and November, had in 1998, characteristics of unusual force, causing desolation, loss of life, and economic, social and environmental damages of enormous magnitude.
		Hurricane Mitch was formed in the southwestern sector of the Caribbean Sea, 360 kilometers from Kingston, Jamaica, on October 21, 1998.

	HURRICANE ALLEY - North Atlantic Climatology
		The area of the Atlantic basin observing the maximum number of hurricanes is near 29.0N, 75.5W, approximately 325 miles east of the central Florida east coast.
		Since the storms in June and October are primarily found to form in areas where there is considerable "human" recognition, it can be argued that with the apparent steady-state of the numbers of systems in these regions, the number of systems in the other regions has actually remained relatively stable as well.
		Interestingly, the number of hurricanes per year has been increasing, but there is a decline in the percentage of tropical cyclones becoming hurricanes, and there is a corresponding trend of a decrease in the percentage of hurricanes becoming category 3-5, or major hurricanes.

		This forecast is based on both statistical and analog analyses of prior hurricane seasons which had atmospheric and oceanic conditions similar to what we anticipate to be in place during the 2002 hurricane season.
		The North Atlantic SSTA patterns in 1988-89 were warmer and a-typical of the overall weak thermohaline period of 1970-1994.
		The hurricane seasons of 1988-89 were observed to be active and not typical of the generally below average hurricane seasons of the 1970 to 1994 period.

		For comparison, 1995 was the second most active Atlantic hurricane season on record (after 1933's 21) with 19 named storms, of which 11 were hurricanes, five categorized as major.
		Hurricane Cesar (7/25-28) crossed Central America and became "Douglas" in the eastern Pacific, the strongest major hurricane in that basin during 1996.

	EXTENDED RANGE FORECAST OF ATLANTIC SEASONAL HURRICANE ACTIVITY
		We expect an active hurricane season for the Atlantic basin, but we do not foresee nearly as active a season as was experienced in 2004 and 2005.
		For example, 1961 was an active hurricane season (NTC of 222), but there was no TC activity during August; 1995 had 19 named storms, but only one named storm developed during a 30-day period during the peak of the hurricane season between 29 August and 27 September.
		During the inactive 1968 hurricane season, three of the eight named storms formed in June (June average is 0.5).

		Virmani and Weisberg compared various meteorological properties of the 2004 and 2005 hurricane seasons with those of prior seasons.
		It would appear that the 2005 hurricane season was not as unique as many people have made it out to be, and that there is no compelling reason to ascribe whatever degree of uniqueness it may have possessed to recent global warming.

		It had 28 named storms, including 15 hurricanes, four of which hit the U.S. The worst of those was Katrina, which leveled parts of the Gulf Coast.
		That was considered a “near normal'' season but fell short of predictions by Gray and government scientists.

		To qualify as a Category 5 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson hurricane intensity scale, maximum sustained winds must exceed 155 mph (135 kt).
		Through 1998, only twenty-two Atlantic storms have reached this intensity, and only eight were of category 5 strength at time of landfall.
		Of these 22, only two made U.S. landfall: the 1935 Florida Keys hurricane and Hurricane Camille, which hit the Mississippi coastline in 1969.
