Hurricane Season runs in different times for each ocean, sea or basin. We often receive questions about when hurricane season is, and when the best time to travel would be if you needed to travel during hurricane season. The information below changes on a season to season, and day to day basis, based on the conditions of the area and should ALWAYS be verified with the National Hurricane Center or the local authorities in the area you plan to visit. Regular Hurricane Season Dates: Atlantic, Carribean, Gulf of Mexico June 1 - November 30 Northeast Pacific May 15 - November 30 Central Pacific including Hawaiian Islands June 1 - November 30
In each of these areas, based on historical data, which was completely ignored by the Atlantic hurricanes during the 2005 extremely active, record breaking Atlantic hurricane season, the best time to visit would be in June and July, and again in late October and November. August, September and early October are considered the height of the season which means there is a much greater chance of a hurricane in these waters at this time. Hurricane Season is just that though, it is the time when hurricanes develop in these waters, therefore if you make plans to travel to these areas during the season, you should also have a backup plan, as well as travel insurance! What would you do if you made travel plans in the Carribean during August, and a category 3 hurricane hits the island the week before you are scheduled to arrive? |

All hurricanes are dangerous, but some more so than others. The way storm surge, wind, and other factors combine determines the hurricane's destructive power. To make comparisons easier-and to make the predicted hazards of approaching hurricanes clearer to emergency forces-National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's hurricane forecasters use a disaster-potential scale which assigns storms to five categories.
* - The Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale is based on Windspeed alone, the pressures are only included as a general reference and may not always apply |
