Hurricane Season refers to the time of year when hurricanes are most likely to form in the Atlantic Ocean, typically from June 1 to November 30. During this period, warm ocean waters and favorable atmospheric conditions can lead to the development of tropical storms and hurricanes. The National Hurricane Center monitors these storms and provides forecasts and warnings to help communities prepare. Hurricanes can cause severe damage through strong winds, heavy rainfall, and storm surges, making it essential for residents in affected areas to stay informed and have emergency plans in place.
