2024 Atlantic hurricane season#Watches and warnings

In advance of, and during, each hurricane season, several forecasts of hurricane activity are issued by national meteorological services, scientific agencies, and noted hurricane experts. These include forecasters from the United States National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)'s Climate Prediction Center, Tropical Storm Risk (TSR), the United Kingdom's Met Office (UKMO), and Colorado State University (CSU). The forecasts include weekly and monthly changes in significant factors that help determine the number of tropical storms, hurricanes, and major hurricanes within a particular year.{{cite journal |last1=Klotzbach |first1=Philip |last2=Blake |first2=Eric |last3=Camp |first3=Joanne |last4=Caron |first4=Louis-Philippe |last5=Chan |first5=Johnny C.L. |last6=Kang |first6=Nam-Young |last7=Kuleshov |first7=Yuri |last8=Lee |first8=Sai-Ming |last9=Murakami |first9=Hiroyuki |last10=Saunders |first10=Mark |last11=Takaya |first11=Yuhei |last12=Vitart |first12=Frederic |last13=Zhan |first13=Ruifen |title=Seasonal Tropical Cyclone Forecasting |journal=Tropical Cyclone Research and Review |date=September 2019 |volume=8 |issue=3 |pages=134–149 |doi=10.1016/j.tcrr.2019.10.003 |doi-access=free|bibcode=2019TCRR....8..134K }}

According to NOAA and CSU, the average Atlantic hurricane season between 1991 and 2020 contained roughly 14 tropical storms, 7 hurricanes, 3 major hurricanes, and an accumulated cyclone energy (ACE) index of 72–111 units.{{cite web |last1=Masters |first1=Jeff |title=Forecasters predict an extremely active 2024 Atlantic hurricane season |url=https://yaleclimateconnections.org/2024/04/forecasters-predict-an-extremely-active-2024-atlantic-hurricane-season/ |publisher=Yale Climate Connections |access-date=June 1, 2024 |date=April 4, 2024 |archive-date=June 1, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240601163314/https://yaleclimateconnections.org/2024/04/forecasters-predict-an-extremely-active-2024-atlantic-hurricane-season/ |url-status=live }} Broadly speaking, ACE is a measure of the power of a tropical or subtropical storm multiplied by the length of time it existed. It is only calculated for full advisories on specific tropical and subtropical systems reaching or exceeding wind speeds of {{cvt|39|mph}}. NOAA typically categorizes a season as above-average, average, or below-average based on the cumulative ACE index, but the number of tropical storms, hurricanes, and major hurricanes within a hurricane season is sometimes also considered.

On December 11, 2023, Tropical Storm Risk (TSR) released its extended range forecast for the 2024 season, predicting an above-average season with 20 named storms, nine hurricanes and four major hurricanes.{{#tag:ref|Hurricanes reaching Category 3 and higher—1-minute sustained winds higher than {{convert|96|kn|mph km/h|order=out}}—on the Saffir–Simpson scale are described as major hurricanes.{{cite web|title=Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale|url=https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/aboutsshws.php|publisher=National Hurricane Center|location=Miami, Florida|access-date=November 29, 2023|archive-date=June 20, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200620093804/https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/aboutsshws.php|url-status=live}}|group="nb"}} They took into account ongoing warm sea-surface temperatures (SST) throughout most of the basin, specifically in the Main Development Region and in the Caribbean Sea on top of the 2023–2024 El Niño event which was predicted to weaken to a neutral phase by August 2024. TSR updated their forecast on May 30, predicting 24 named storms, 12 hurricanes, and 6 major hurricanes with an ACE of 226 units. On April 4, 2024, Colorado State University (CSU) released its forecast, calling for an extremely active hurricane season, with 23 named storms, 11 hurricanes and five major hurricanes, with an ACE index of 210 units, citing the extremely warm Atlantic sea surface temperatures and the development of a La Niña by the summer. On April 5, Météo-France (MFM) issued a prediction of 21 named storms and 11 hurricanes. They cited warm sea surface temperatures, wind patterns, and humidity. On April 8, TSR updated their prediction, predicting 23 tropical storms, 11 hurricanes, and five major hurricanes, with an accumulated cyclone energy (ACE) index of 217 units. They predicted that moderate La Niña conditions would occur in the summer and persist into fall and above average sea surface temperatures would also persist into summer. On the same day, the University of Arizona (UA) posted their forecast calling for a very active season featuring 21 named storms, 11 hurricanes, 5 major hurricanes, and an ACE index of 156 units. On April 12, University of Missouri (MU) issued their prediction of 26 named storms, 11 hurricanes, and five major hurricanes. On April 16, NCSU issued their prediction of 15–20 named storms, 10–12 hurricanes, and 3–4 major hurricanes. On April 24, the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) issued their prediction of a record-breaking season, predicting an unprecedented 33 (±6) named storms. They cited expected moderate La Niña conditions and record-warm sea surface temperatures in the tropical Atlantic tied to large-scale warming. On May 6, the Servicio Meteorológico Nacional (SMN) issued their forecast of 20–23 tropical storms, 9–11 hurricanes, and 4–5 major hurricanes. On May 22, UKMO published their forecast for the 2024 season, calling for 22 named storms, 12 hurricanes, and 4 major hurricanes, and an ACE index of 212 units. One day later, NOAA published their hurricane season prediction, forecasting an above-average season of 17–25 named storms, 8–13 hurricanes, and 4–7 major hurricanes with an 85% chance of being an above-average season. TSR updated their predictions on May 30 with 24 tropical storms, 12 hurricanes, and 6 major hurricanes with an ACE of 226.

On June 11, CSU also updated its predictions, continuing to expect an extremely active season, with 23 tropical storms, 11 hurricanes, five major hurricanes, and an ACE of 210. On June 23, UA updated its prediction with 23 named storms, 10 hurricanes, five major hurricanes, and an ACE of 231. TSR updated its predictions on July 5 with 26 tropical storms, 13 hurricanes, and six major hurricanes with an ACE of 240. On July 9, CSU updated its predictions, anticipating an even more active season, with 25 tropical storms, 12 hurricanes, six major hurricanes, and an ACE of 230. On August 8, NOAA updated its prediction of the total number of named storms slightly, while still anticipating a highly active season.

Officially, the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season began on June 1, and ended on November 30.{{cite web |title=Frequently Asked Questions |date=June 1, 2023 |url=https://www.aoml.noaa.gov/hrd-faq/#hurricane-season |access-date=June 20, 2024 |publisher=Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory |location=Miami, Florida }} In all, eighteen tropical cyclones formed, and all of them became named storms. Eleven storms became hurricanes, of which five strengthened into major hurricanes.{{cite web|title=Tropical Storm Sara forms in the Western Caribbean, threatens Honduras|last1=Henson|first1=Bob|last2=Masters|first2=Jeff|date=November 14, 2024|url=https://yaleclimateconnections.org/2024/11/tropical-storm-sara-forms-in-the-western-caribbean-threatens-honduras/|publisher=Yale Climate Connection|location=New Haven, Connecticut|access-date=November 19, 2024}} Additionally, one potential tropical cyclone that was designated did not develop into a tropical cyclone. Altogether, there were 12 landfalling systems this season.

This season's ACE index, as calculated by the Colorado State University (CSU) using data from the NHC was approximately 161.6 units.{{cite web| title=Real-Time Tropical Cyclone North Atlantic Ocean Statistics|url=http://tropical.atmos.colostate.edu/Realtime/|publisher=Colorado State University|location=Fort Collins, Colorado|access-date=September 29, 2024}} This number represents sum of the squares of the maximum sustained wind speed (knots) for all named storms while they are at least tropical storm intensity, divided by 10,000. Therefore, tropical depressions are not included.

Though the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season officially began on June 1, it had its slowest start since 2014.{{cite web|title=Tropical storm warnings up for Texas and Mexico for Potential Tropical Cyclone 1|last1=Masters|first1=Jeff|last2=Henson|first2=Bob|url=https://yaleclimateconnections.org/2024/06/tropical-storm-warnings-up-for-texas-and-mexico-for-potential-tropical-cyclone-1/|date=June 18, 2024|publisher=Yale Climate Connections|location= New Haven, Connecticut|access-date=November 30, 2024}} This was due to a large stationary heat dome over Central America and Mexico, as tropical cyclogenesis in June often occurs over the Gulf of Mexico and northern Caribbean Sea.{{Cite news |last=Sistek |first=Scott |date=June 5, 2024 |title=Atlantic hurricane season off to slowest start in a decade: Will aggressive forecasts still hold? |url=https://www.foxweather.com/weather-news/atlantic-hurricane-season-slowest-start-2014 |access-date=June 6, 2024 |publisher=FOX Weather }} The season's first named storm, Tropical Storm Alberto, formed in the western Gulf of Mexico on June 19,{{#tag:ref|The average formation date of the first named Atlantic tropical storm is June 20.{{cite news|title=Tropical Storm Alberto: First named storm of 2024 season forms in Gulf of Mexico|url=https://www.wsbtv.com/weather/tropical-storm-alberto-first-named-storm-2024-season-forms-gulf-mexico/I2H5KRT3ABE47NMJG46CM3L43Y/|date=June 19, 2024|publisher=WSB-TV|location=Atlanta, Georgia|access-date=June 20, 2024}}|group="nb"}} then proceeded to make landfall on the northeastern coast of Mexico the following day. Next came Hurricane Beryl, the earliest-forming Category 4 and Category 5 Atlantic hurricane on record in a season and the strongest June and July hurricane on record in the basin. After forming on June 28 in the main development region (MDR), the storm rapidly intensified as it approached the Windward Islands,< peaking as a Category 5 hurricane early on July 2. Short-lived Tropical Storm Chris developed in the southwestern Gulf of Mexico on June 30, quickly moving ashore in Mexico the following morning. Beryl continued on, impacting Jamaica and landfalling on the Yucatán Peninsula and Texas. After Beryl dissipated on July 11, the Atlantic basin would fall under a period of inactivity due to the Saharan air layer, which suppresses tropical activity, persisting over the open Atlantic alongside dry air typically occurring during this period of the season.{{Cite web |last=Kay |first=Christana |date=July 17, 2024 |title=The tropics turned eerily quiet after Hurricane Beryl.

Activity resumed at the start of August, with Hurricane Debby developing in the Gulf of Mexico on August 3, before making landfall in Florida as a Category 1 hurricane two days later. It then slowed down over land afterwards and dropped heavy rain and caused widespread flooding in the Southeastern United States. A few days after Debby dissipated, Hurricane Ernesto formed on August 12 in the Western Main Development Region. Ernesto caused damage to the Lesser Antilles on August 14 as a Category 1 hurricane. Two days later on August 16, it peaked as a Category 2 hurricane. The next day it made landfall at Bermuda as a weakening Category 1 storm.

Despite the unseasonably warm temperatures in the North Atlantic, the equatorial Atlantic cooled rapidly into an "Atlantic Niña" due to upwelling caused by shifts in the trade winds and the Atlantic zonal mode. The effects of an Atlantic Niña is not certain but it is contrary to the assumptions that the NOAA used in their forecast of seasonal activity.{{Cite web |last=Tuchen |first=Franz Philip |date=2024-08-14 |title=Atlantic Niña on the verge of developing.

Tropical Storm Gordon followed suit two days later on September 11, with Francine making landfall in Louisiana as a Category 2 system later that day. Four systems developed during the final week of September, starting with Hurricane Helene on September 24 The system affected the Yucatán Peninsula on September 25, before making landfall in the Big Bend region of Florida late on September 26 as a Category 4 hurricane, where it rapidly weakened into a tropical depression on September 27.. Hurricane Isaac formed on September 26 and later peaked as a Category 2 hurricane. On September 27, Tropical Storm Joyce formed just west of the Cabo Verde Islands. Activity in September ended with the formation of Hurricane Kirk on September 29, which reached its peak intensity on October 4.

Early October saw the formations of Hurricanes Leslie and Milton, which, along with Kirk, marked the first time on record that there were three simultaneously active hurricanes in the Atlantic basin after September.{{cite report |url=https://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/images/153426/three-storms-churn-in-an-active-atlantic |title=Three Storms Churn in an Active Atlantic |last1=Cassidy |first1=Emily |date=October 6, 2024 |publisher=NASA Earth Observatory |language=en-US |access-date=October 7, 2024}} Milton notably underwent explosive rapid intensification within the Gulf of Mexico to become the second Category 5 hurricane of the season, making 2024 the first Atlantic hurricane season since 2019 to feature multiple Category 5 hurricanes.

A Central American gyre resulted in the formation of convection over the Gulf of Tehuantepec on June 15. As the convective activity progressed northward over southeastern Mexico and exited into the Bay of Campeche, an area of low pressure gradually developed on June 17 about {{convert|105|mi|km|abbr=on|round=5}} northwest of Ciudad del Carmen, Mexico. The system gradually became better organized, though still remained rather broad, developing into Tropical Storm Alberto by 12:00 UTC on June 19. Under the influence of light vertical wind shear and warm sea surface temperatures, Alberto intensified up to landfall, attaining peak winds of {{cvt|45|kn|mph km/h|round=5|order=out}} and a minimum central pressure of {{cvt|992|mbar|inHg|sigfig=4}} by the morning of June 20. Alberto moved ashore at 09:00 UTC that day near Tampico, Mexico, and rapidly weakened over land, dissipating just nine hours later.{{cite report|url=https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/data/tcr/AL012024_Alberto.pdf|title=Tropical Cyclone Report: Tropical Storm Alberto|author1=Hagen, Andrew B.|author2=Nepaul, Heather|publisher=National Hurricane Center|date=September 5, 2024|location=Miami, Florida|access-date=September 5, 2024}}

The storm brought heavy rainfall to the states of Coahuila, Nuevo León, and Tamaulipas in northeast Mexico. Alberto resulted in five deaths in Mexico, all in Nuevo León, including one in Monterrey due to river flooding, one in El Carmen, and two in Allende (the latter three were indirect electrocution deaths).

On June 23, a tropical wave exited the west coast of Africa and entered the Atlantic. After initially moving westward with little development for a few days, the wave began organizing on June 27. By 12:00 UTC on the following day, Tropical Depression Two formed about {{convert|1380|mi|km|abbr=on|round=5}} east of Barbados.{{cite report|url=https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/data/tcr/AL022024_Beryl.pdf|title=Tropical Cyclone Report: Hurricane Beryl|author=Beven, John|author2=Fritz, Cody|author3=Alaka, Laura|date=May 1, 2025|publisher=National Hurricane Center|location=Miami, Florida|accessdate=May 7, 2025}} A strong subtropical ridge caused the depression to move generally west-northwestward through an unusually favorable environment for the time of year with warm sea surface temperatures (SST) and minimal wind shear, consequently beginning a period of rapid intensification.{{cite report|last=Cangialosi|first=John|title=Tropical Storm Beryl Discussion Number 2|url=https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/2024/al02/al022024.discus.002.shtml?|publisher=National Hurricane Center|location=Miami, Florida|language=en-US|date=June 28, 2024|access-date=June 28, 2024}} The depression strengthened into Tropical Storm Beryl by 00:00 UTC June 29 and then into a hurricane about 24 hours thereafter. Beryl intensified into a Category 3 major hurricane around 12:00 UTC on June 30 and reached an intensity peak intensity as a Category 4 hurricane with sustained winds of 130 mph (215 km/h) six hours later. Beryl then underwent an eyewall replacement cycle and briefly weakened to a Category 3 hurricane early on July 1, but regained Category 4 strength six hours later once the cycle was completed. At 15:10 UTC the same day, Beryl made landfall in Carriacou, Grenada, with winds of 140 mph (220 km/h). After entering the Caribbean, the hurricane further intensified into a Category 5 hurricane early on July 2 and soon peaked with winds of 165 mph (270 km/h) and a minimum pressure of {{convert|932|mbar|inHg|abbr=on}}, recorded by a dropsonde.

Increasing wind shear caused Beryl to begin weakening later on July 2 as it passed well south of Hispaniola, falling to Category 4 intensity by 18:00 UTC. Beryl's center passed close to the southern coast of Jamaica late on July 3 and early on July 4. Around 12:00 UTC on the latter date, the cyclone weakened to a Category 2 hurricane southeast of the Cayman Islands. Beryl briefly re-gained major hurricane status early on July 5, but quickly weakened back. At 11:00 UTC, the storm made landfall in Mexico near Tulum, Quintana Roo, as a Category 1 hurricane with winds of 90 mph (150 km/h). Beryl quickly fell to tropical storm status before emerging into the Gulf of Mexico later on July 5. Turning north-northwestward on July 7 due to a mid-latitude trough, the cyclone began re-intensifying significantly as wind shear decreased and moisture increased. Early on July 8, Beryl became a Category 1 hurricane, before making landfall near Matagorda, Texas, at 08:40 UTC with winds of 90 mph (150 km/h). While passing over western Greater Houston, Beryl weakened to a tropical storm at 18:00 UTC and turned northeastward. Around 00:00 UTC on July 9, the cyclone weakened to a tropical depression, approximately 12 hours before becoming extratropical over central Arkansas. The extratropical remnants crossed the Midwestern United States and southern Ontario before being absorbed over western New York by a frontal system on July 11.

{{main article|Tropical Storm Chris (2024)}}

A tropical wave emerged into the Atlantic from Africa's west coast of June 20. Moving generally westward for several days, the wave crossed the Windward Islands on June 25 and then traversed the Caribbean through June 28. By then, the wave slowed and an area of low pressure developed, one day before striking the Yucatán Peninsula. After entering the Bay of Campeche on June 30, the low organized into a tropical depression around 18:00 UTC about {{convert|65|mi|km|abbr=on|round=5}} northeast of Veracruz, Veracruz. Warm seas allowed the depression to intensify into Tropical Storm Chris at 00:00 UTC on July 1. However, just three hours later, Chris made landfall in Alto Lucero, Veracruz, with winds of 45 mph (75 km/h) and a minimum pressure of {{convert|1005|mbar|inHg|abbr=on}}. The cyclone rapidly weakened and dissipated late on July 1.{{cite report|url=https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/data/tcr/AL032024_Chris.pdf|author=Berg, Robbie|date=August 13, 2024|title=Tropical Cyclone Report: Tropical Storm Chris|publisher=National Hurricane Center|location=Miami, Florida|accessdate=May 29, 2025}}

In Hidalgo, flooding forced the evacuation of around 200 families in Yahualica. More than 20,000 people were affected by flooding in Xochiatipan, which inundated homes and a clinic. An elderly man in Tlanchinol, Hidalgo, was killed after being buried by a mudslide, while four police officers in Tepetlán, Veracruz, were killed after being swept away by an overflowing stream while surveying storm damage. The state governments of Veracruz and Tamaulipas spent MXN$143.987 million (USD$7.06 million) and MXN$800 million - 1 billion (USD$39.2 - 48.9 million), respectively, on repairing the damage caused by Chris.{{Cite news|title=ASF da plazo a Cuitláhuac para aclarar daño patrimonial |date=November 8, 2024|url=https://da21w.e-veracruz.mx/nota/2024-11-08/politica/asf-da-plazo-cuitlahuac-para-aclarar-dano-patrimonial |access-date=June 5, 2025 |author=Alemán, Alba|website=da21w.e-veracruz.mx |language=es}}{{Cite news|date=July 2, 2024 |title=Chris amaina... pero Beryl ya es huracán 5 |url=http://boletin.org.mx/Noticia/chris-amaina-pero-beryl-ya-es-huracan-5 |access-date=December 19, 2024 |website=boletin.org.mx}}

{{main|Hurricane Debby}}

Between July 25 and July 26, a tropical wave crossed the west coast of Africa and entered the eastern Atlantic. The wave moved generally westward for several days, but possessed little convection due to dry air until reaching the Lesser Antilles on July 31. After crossing Puerto Rico, Hispaniola, and eastern Cuba, the disturbance organized into a tropical depression early on August 3 over the Caribbean about {{convert|60|mi|km|abbr=on|round=5}} west of Santa Cruz del Sur, Camagüey Province. The depression struck Ciénaga de Zapata in Matanzas Province several hours later. After emerging into the Straits of Florida near Havana, the system strengthened into Tropical Storm Debby late on August 3. Moving northwestward and then northward due to a western Atlantic subtropical ridge, Debby strengthened into a hurricane early on August 5. Around 11:00 UTC, the cyclone made landfall near Steinhatchee, Florida, with winds of 80 mph (130 km/h) and a minimum pressure of {{convert|979|mbar|inHg|abbr=on}}. Debby quickly weakened to a tropical storm and turned northeastward. Upon reaching the Atlantic early on August 7, Debby had transitioned into a subtropical storm. After meandering slowly southeastward and then northwestward, the system struck Bulls Bay, South Carolina, with winds of 45 mph (75 km/h). Late on August 8, Debby became extratropical while merging with a front over North Carolina. The remnant low crossed the Eastern United States and parts of Atlantic Canada before being absorbed over the Gulf of St. Lawrence by another frontal system associated with new area of low pressure.{{cite report|url=https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/data/tcr/AL042024_Debby.pdf|title=Tropical Cyclone Report: Hurricane Debby|author=Reinhart, Brad|author2=Reinhart, Amanda|author3=Alaka, Laura|date=February 4, 2025|publisher=National Hurricane Center|location=Miami, Florida|accessdate=May 29, 2025}}

{{Main|Hurricane Ernesto (2024)}}

On August 7, a tropical wave emerged into the Atlantic from the west coast of Africa. The wave gradually acquired more convection and organized as it moved generally westward over the next several days, developing into a tropical depression roughly {{convert|450|mi|km|abbr=on|round=5}} east of Guadeloupe at 12:00 UTC on August 12. The depression continued moving westward due to a large subtropical ridge and intensified into Tropical Storm Ernesto within six hours. Ernesto turned northwestward on August 13 and struck Guadeloupe, Montserrat, and Saint John that day while strengthening under favorable conditions. After passing northeast of Puerto Rico on the next day, Ernesto became a hurricane, although the storm initially struggled to intensify much further due to dry air. A weakness in the subtropical ridge caused the cyclone to turn northward and then northeastward. Early on August 16, Ernesto intensified into a Category 2 hurricane and peaked with winds of 100 mph (155 km/h) and a minimum pressure of {{convert|967|mbar|inHg|abbr=on}}. However, increasing wind shear weakened Ernesto to a Category 1 hurricane on August 17, before striking Bermuda at 08:30 UTC. The system weakened further weakened to a tropical storm early on the following day, but re-strengthened into a Category 1 hurricane several hours later. Ernesto briefly re-intensified into a Category 2 hurricane on August 19. Accelerating northeastward, Ernesto transitioned into an extratropical cyclone at 12:00 UTC on August 20 about {{convert|260|mi|km|abbr=on|round=5}} east-northeast of St. John's, Newfoundland, several hours before opening into a trough.{{Cite report |date=March 4, 2025 |title=Tropical Cyclone Report: Hurricane Ernesto|author=Papin, Philippe|url=https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/data/tcr/AL052024_Ernesto.pdf |url-status=live |publisher=National Hurricane Center|accessdate=May 31, 2025|location=Miami, Florida}}

{{main|Hurricane Francine}}

Between August 25 and August 26, a tropical wave emerged into the Atlantic from the west coast of Africa. After crossing the Atlantic and Caribbean for more than a week, deep convection began increasing on September 5 as the wave moved over the Yucatán Peninsula. Emerging into the Bay of Campeche on September 7, the wave interacted with a frontal system and non-tropical low, leading to the formation of a separate low, which developed into Tropical Storm Francine on September 9 about {{convert|160|mi|km|abbr=on|round=5}} northeast of Tampico, Tamaulipas. Higher wind gusts in the system were enhanced by a barrier jet near the Sierra Madre Oriental. Francine initially moved northwestward due to a mid-level ridge over Florida, but turned northeastward on September 10 as a short-wave trough crossed the Southeastern United States. The storm strengthened into a hurricane early on September 11. Significant intensification ensued despite increasing wind shear, with Francine peaking as a Category 2 hurricane with winds of 105 mph (165 km/h) and a minimum pressure of {{convert|972|mbar|inHg|abbr=on}} as it struck Terrebonne Parish, Louisiana, at 22:00 UTC. Rapid weakening then commenced, and at 06:00 UTC on September 12, Francine weakened into a tropical storm and then a tropical depression at 12:00 UTC, six hours before becoming extratropical over Mississippi. The extratropical low dissipated over Arkansas on September 14.{{cite report|url=https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/data/tcr/AL062024_Francine.pdf|author=Bucci, Lisa|author2=Alaka, Laura|date=March 10, 2025|title=Tropical Cyclone Report: Hurricane Francine|publisher=National Hurricane Center|location=Miami, Florida|accessdate=May 19, 2025}}

Continuously favorable conditions allowed the storm to intensify into a hurricane about 24 hours later as it moved northwestward and passed just offshore the Yucatán Peninsula. Helene then accelerated northeastward across the Gulf of Mexico due to a ridge and a deep-layer cut-off low-pressure area situated over the Tennessee Valley while expanding significantly and reaching major hurricane status late on September 26. At 03:10 UTC on the following day, Helene peaked as a Category 4 hurricane with maximum sustained winds of 140 mph (220 km/h) and a minimum pressure of {{convert|939|mbar|inHg|abbr=on}} as it struck Florida just east of the mouth of the Aucilla River, based on data from a Texas Tech StickNet observation site located about halfway between the landfall point and Perry. Thus, the cyclone became the most intense to make landfall in the Big Bend region of Florida since reliable records began. Helene quickly weakened as it moved quickly inland before degenerating into a post-tropical cyclone over Kentucky while merging with a cut-off low on September 27. The system then stalled over the state before dissipating on September 29.

Helene's precursor and early stages caused flooding in Nicaragua, Honduras, the Cayman Islands, and the Yucatán Peninsula, where high winds left more than 120,000 customers without electricity in Quintana Roo.{{Cite web |date=September 25, 2024 |title=Helene leaves Cancun behind and more than 120,000 without power |url=https://riviera-maya-news.com/helene-leaves-cancun-behind-and-more-than-120000-without-power/2024.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240925210816/https://riviera-maya-news.com/helene-leaves-cancun-behind-and-more-than-120000-without-power/2024.html |archive-date=September 25, 2024 |access-date=September 25, 2024 |work=Riviera Maya News |language=en-US}} Storm surge in Florida caused significant damage from the Tampa Bay area northward.

Several counties in or near the Big Bend suffered extensive wind impacts. Heavy crop and timber losses occurred over southern Georgia, totaling about $5.5 billion. Tens of thousands of homes and buildings suffered wind damage as far north as the Augusta area, while floodwaters entered at least 200 structures and a number of vehicles in the Atlanta area. Catastrophic flooding and more than 2,000 landslides occurred over the southern Appalachian Mountains, especially North Carolina, due to rainfall totals up to {{convert|30.78|in|mm|abbr=on}} in Busick, North Carolina. In North Carolina, over 125,000 housing units and approximately {{convert|822000|acres|abbr=on}} of timberland suffered some degree of damage.

Helene and its remnants also spawned thirty-nine tornadoes across the United States, one of which killed two people in Wheeler County, Georgia. Flooding also impacted Virginia, West Virginia, and Ohio, leaving 12 homes destroyed and 104 others damaged in Pulaski County, Virginia, alone. More than 7.4 million customers lost electricity across the United States.

{{main|Hurricane Milton}}

In mid-September, two African tropical waves and a low-level trough merged over the eastern Atlantic. Although disorganized upon reaching the Lesser Antilles on September 26, the wave began interacting with a CAG over the western Caribbean on September 29. This led to the formation of a low-level trough with two centers over the Gulf of Mexico. One center persisted, resulting in the development of Tropical Depression Fourteen about {{convert|155|mi|km|abbr=on|round=5}} east of Tampico, Tamaulipas, at 12:00 UTC on October 5. Strengthening into Tropical Storm Milton within six hours, the cyclone moved slowly eastward to east-southeastward over the next few days along the southern periphery of the mid-latitude westerlies. Milton underwent explosive intensification due to very warm waters and low-to-moderate wind shear, becoming a hurricane around 18:00 UTC on October 6 and then a major hurricane within 18 hours thereafter. At 20:00 UTC on October 7, the system peaked as a Category 5 hurricane with winds of 180 mph (285 km/h) and a minimum pressure of {{convert|895|mbar|inHg|abbr=on}}.

Early on October 8, the storm weakened to a Category 4 hurricane due to an eyewall replacement cycle; however, upon the cycle's completion, it quickly re-strengthened back to Category 5 intensity while turning northeastward in response to stronger deep-laying southwesterly flow. However, the next day, Milton weakened to a Category 4 hurricane and then to Category 3 intensity late on October 9 because of increasing wind shear. At 00:30 UTC on October 10, Milton struck near Siesta Key, Florida, with {{convert|115|mph|km/h|abbr=on|round=5}} winds. Milton weakened over Florida and entered the Atlantic as a Category 1 hurricane, merging with a nearby frontal boundary. Around 18:00 UTC on October 10, it had transitioned into an extratropical low. The extratropical low gradually weakened, passed near Bermuda on October 11, and merged with a frontal zone on October 12.

{{main|Tropical Storm Nadine (2024)}}

On October 15, a broad area of low pressure formed in the southwestern Caribbean Sea east of Central America. The disturbance moved slowly northwestward over the following couple of days, remaining offshore. Then, on October 17 and 18, the low gradually became better defined, and the showers and thunderstorms associated with it become better organized. Consequently, the system was designed Potential Tropical Cyclone Fifteen on the afternoon of October 18. The system quickly developed a closed circulation, and was designated as Tropical Storm Nadine early the next day, while about {{cvt|185|mi|km|round=5}} east of Belize City. The storm made landfall near Belize City around 16:00 UTC on October 19, at peak intensity, with {{cvt|50|kn|mph km/h|order=out|round=5}} sustained winds and a minimum pressure of {{convert|1002|mbar|inHg|abbr=on}}. Eight hours later, the storm weakened to a tropical depression while over northern Guatemala. Then, early on October 20, the system degenerated into a remnant low while traversing Southern Mexico.{{cite report|url=https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/data/tcr/AL152024_Nadine.pdf|title=Tropical Cyclone Report: Tropical Storm Nadine|author=Reinhart, Brad|date=January 8, 2025|publisher=National Hurricane Center|location=Miami, Florida|accessdate=May 19, 2025}} Nadine's remnants ultimately entered the Pacific basin, where they facilitated the development of a trough of low pressure in the Gulf of Tehuantepec,{{cite report|last=Landsea|first=Christopher|url=https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/xgtwo/gtwo_archive.php?current_issuance=202410201727&basin=epac&fdays=7|title=Tropical Weather Outlook|date=October 20, 2024|publisher=National Hurricane Center|location=Miami, Florida|access-date=October 21, 2024}} which led to the formation of Hurricane Kristy on October 21.

{{main|Hurricane Oscar (2024)}}

On October 10, a tropical wave emerged into the Atlantic from the west coast of Africa. After remaining disorganized for several days due to dry air and moderate wind shear, a circulation began developing as the system passed north of the Lesser Antilles, and early on October 19, Tropical Storm Oscar formed approximately {{convert|180|mi|km|abbr=on|round=5}} north of Puerto Rico. In addition to very warm seas and light to moderate wind shear, the cyclone's small size allowed for quick intensification, with Oscar reaching hurricane status by 18:00 UTC. Hurricane-force winds less than {{convert|6|mi|km|abbr=on|sigfig=1}} from the center. Late on October 19, Oscar struck Grand Turk Island with winds of 85 mph (140 km/h). The system then turned southwestward due to low- to mid-level ridge over the eastern United States and passed near Inagua in the Bahamas on October 20, shortly before Oscar's barometric pressure fell to {{convert|984|mbar|inHg|abbr=on}}. At 22:00 UTC, Oscar made landfall in Baracoa, located in the Cuban province of Guantánamo. Oscar quickly weakened to a tropical storm early on October 21 and slowed considerably due to collapsing steering currents, but re-emerged into the Atlantic several hours later. Late on October 22, Oscar degenerated into a trough over the central Bahamas, before soon being absorbed by a non-tropical low.{{cite report|last=Papin|first=Philippe|title=Tropical Cyclone Report: Hurricane Oscar|date=March 11, 2025|url=https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/data/tcr/AL162024_Oscar.pdf|publisher=National Hurricane Center|location=Miami, Florida|access-date=April 6, 2025}}

On October 26, the NHC began monitoring the southwestern Caribbean in anticipation of tropical development.{{cite report|last=Berg|first=Robbie|title=Tropical Weather Outlook|url=https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/xgtwo/gtwo_archive.php?current_issuance=202410262323&basin=atl&fdays=7|date=October 26, 2024|publisher=National Hurricane Center|location=Miami, Florida|access-date=November 3, 2024}} Convection increased markedly in early November in association with a Central American Gyre. However, the presence of a well-defined circulation could not be confirmed until November 4, when Tropical Depression Eighteen formed at 12:00 UTC roughly {{convert|205|mi|km|abbr=on|round=5}} southwest of Kingston, Jamaica. The depression continued to strengthen, and became Tropical Storm Rafael six hours later. The storm tracked northwestward along the southwestern side of a ridge over the western Atlantic on November 5, and passed to the west of Jamaica. That afternoon it developed an inner wind core, and strengthened into a hurricane early on November 6. Later that day, at 21:15 UTC, Rafael made landfall just east of Playa Majana, in the Cuban province of Artemisa, with winds of {{cvt|100|kn|mph km/h|order=out|round=5}}. A few hours later, the system entered the Gulf of Mexico, as a weaker Category 2 hurricane. It then proceeded to turn west-northwestward and re-intensify, becoming a major hurricane once again early on November 8 with peak winds of {{cvt|105|kn|mph km/h|order=out|round=5}} and a minimum pressure of {{convert|954|mbar|inHg|abbr=on}}. That afternoon, however, the system turned westward and began losing strength and organization, due to increasing westerly wind shear and dry air intrusion. This trend continued, and Rafael was downgraded to a tropical storm early on November 9. Rafael's remaining convection collapsed on November 10, and it degenerated into a remnant low about {{convert|230|mi|km|abbr=on|round=5}} southwest of Port Fourchon, Louisiana, before opening up into a trough on the next day.{{cite report|last=Blake|first=Eric|title=Tropical Cyclone Report: Hurricane Rafael|date=March 10, 2025|url=https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/data/tcr/AL182024_Rafael.pdf|publisher=National Hurricane Center|location=Miami, Florida|access-date=April 6, 2025}}

{{main|Tropical Storm Sara}}

On November 11, a large area of low-pressure merged with a tropical wave south of Hispaniola over the central Caribbean Sea. The system moved generally westward and gradually organized over the next few days. Then, early on November 14, the system developed into Tropical Depression Nineteen about {{cvt|150|mi|km|round=5|abbr=on}} east of the Honduras-Nicaragua border. Later that day, Air Force Reserve reconnaissance aircraft found maximum sustained winds of around {{cvt|35|kn|mph km/h|order=out|round=5}}, indicating that the depression strengthened into Tropical Storm Sara. The cyclone then made landfall in Honduras near Punt Patuca early on November 15, but soon re-emerged into the Caribbean and strengthened further, peaking with winds of 50 mph (85 km/h) and a minimum pressure of {{convert|997|mbar|inHg|abbr=on}} around 12:00 UTC. Sara then drifted generally west-northwestward, making landfall in Belize near Dangriga around 14:00 UTC on November 17. The cyclone weakened to a tropical depression about four hours later and dissipated early on November 18 over Campeche. After emerging into the Bay of Campeche, the remnants merged with a frontal system moving across the Southeastern United States within a few days.{{cite report|last=Kelly|first=Larry|title=Tropical Cyclone Report: Tropical Storm Sara|date=February 19, 2025|url=https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/data/tcr/AL192024_Sara.pdf|publisher=National Hurricane Center|location=Miami, Florida|access-date=March 24, 2025}}
