It’s peak hurricane season in South Florida… but where are all the storms?

This week we marked the five-year anniversary of Hurricane Irma’s landfall and got an update on the storms currently swirling in the Atlantic.

Although Irma was five years ago, its memory serves as a lasting reminder of what the tropics can produce at the peak of season and before Nov. 30.

The Atlantic has been brewing with activity, but only recently. Typically, by Sept. 9 the Atlantic has observed nine named storms. However, as of Sept. 10, 2022, scientists have named only five storms – that’s three less than last year during the same time.

Meteorologist Megan Borowski with the Florida Public Radio Emergency Network does not expect any direct or immediate impacts to Florida at this time.

Currently, the National Hurricane Center is watching two systems including Hurricane Earl, which at one point was forecast to become the season’s first major hurricane but was stymied by wind shear and a trough of low pressure. Earl is now on track to become an extratropical storm.

But remember, the season is not yet over, some of Florida’s most infamous storms occurred on or after the peak of season including 2005′s Wilma, 2016′s Matthew, and 2018′s

Michael Borowski said. Forecasters still expect an above average season even though storm activity has been lagging this season.
