Hurricane season officially came to an end on Nov. 30, and for the first time in 10 years, no hurricane made landfall in the United States.
Although the Atlantic’s annual cyclones still left their mark on a large portion of the East Coast, especially North Carolina, and wreaked havoc across neighboring nations in the Caribbean, this year’s storm count stood in stark contrast to last year’s devastation, which included Hurricanes Beryl, Helene, and Milton.
