Atlantic active again as peak of hurricane season approaches

Following a nearly two-month-long summer vacation, the Atlantic Ocean basin has fully shaken off its cobwebs. As two named storms -- Danielle and Earl -- inhabit the basin, AccuWeather forecasters continue to monitor for other potential tropical threats in the coming days.

There will be a brief window in the next few days when more than one hurricane can churn in the basin simultaneously for the first time in nearly two years.



The last time the Atlantic basin had more than one active hurricane in the basin was during the record-shattering 2020 hurricane season. For a brief time on Sept. 16, 2020, Hurricane Paulette, Hurricane Sally and Hurricane Teddy maintained at least Category 1 hurricane strength simultaneously.

Here's a rundown of the now-active Atlantic basin as the climatological peak of hurricane season, Sept. 10, quickly approaches.

Lots of late season hurricanes in the Northern Caribbean and above come from that direction. Sandy came from South of Jamaica.
