Early
Early Start to Atlantic Hurricane Season
June 1 - November 30th
Tropical storm Ana became the first named tropical system of the 2015 Atlantic Hurricane Season and was first classified as a subtropical or hybrid storm. It made landfall at 6 a.m. EDT Sunday May 10, 2015, as a tropical storm along the coast of South Carolina and weakened to a tropical depression less than eight hours later. Despite weakening, Ana was still expected to deliver soaking rain across eastern North Carolina and into southeastern Virginia through Monday. Ana's leftover moisture will also spread into some coastal areas of the Northeast.
Keeping Watchful Eye
For several years now, we have been providing links to current information about tropical weather which might impact your travel plans. You can click on the image or link below or on the Hurricane Zone tab anywhere on our Blog.
We have RSS feeds from the different National Hurricane Center regional pages which can then be followed for the latest news on the given storm. From time to time, we may post additional articles, especially if cruise ship itineraries are impacted.
We'll bring you more information about Hurricanes during National Hurricane Preparedness Week which is May 24th to May 30th this year.
