Hurricane season in Florida officially runs from June 1 through November 30 each year. These dates represent the period when ocean temperatures and atmospheric conditions are most favorable for the formation and strengthening of tropical storms and hurricanes. The peak of the hurricane season, when most intense and frequent storms occur, is typically from mid-August to late October, with September often being the most active month. To summarize:
- Hurricane season start: June 1
- Hurricane season end: November 30
- Peak months: Mid-August to late October (September is often the peak)
This six-month window covers about 97% of all Atlantic hurricanes, making it important to prepare before and during this time frame for potential storms.
