When will the tropical storm season end?! The forecasters keep repeating, "one for the record books." As the seasons continue to change into winter, the months pass since the November tropical season deadline and tropical storms are still forming... What does this all mean? Will they extend the tropical season into January? Is this a natural occurrence in the cycle of tropical storms and their delicate balance among our planet? One fact is clear, this currently ties the record set way back in 1887 for the most continuous tropical storms in consecutive months-June through January...The previous record was set in 2003, the year we decided to set our course and capture the mission films...
This is what the NHC has to say about the latest storm that is defying all and has the forecasters scratching their heads in disbelief...
Here are some other fun facts...
Has there ever been a Tropical Storm so late in the year before?
