Timeline of the 2007 Atlantic hurricane season

The 2008 Atlantic hurricane season was an event in the annual tropical cyclone season in the north Atlantic Ocean. An active Atlantic hurricane season season, September had a record-tying eight storms, although the strength and duration of most of the storms was low.[1] Also, for only the second time in recorded history, an Atlantic hurricane, Felix, and an eastern Pacific hurricane, Henriette, made landfall on the same day.

Season summary map

The season officially began on June 1, 2007, and ended on November 30, 2007, dates that conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones develop in the Atlantic basin.[2] The season's first storm, Subtropical Storm Andrea, developed from an extratropical cyclone that formed on May 6, and the last, Tropical Storm Olga, dissipated on December 11. Altogether, there were 15 named tropical storms during the 2007 season. Six storms attained hurricane strength with two intensifying further into major hurricanes.[nb 1]

This timeline documents tropical cyclone formations, strengthening, weakening, landfalls, extratropical transitions, as well as dissipations during the 2007 Atlantic hurricane season. It includes information that was not operationally released, meaning that information from post-storm reviews by the National Hurricane Center, such as a storm that was not operationally warned on, has been included.

gollark: This is not considered blasphemy regarding potatOS.
gollark: It can even detect someone saying that potatOS is "not not bad".
gollark: I made an advanced NLP system to detect blasphemy on SwitchCraft.
gollark: It's probably as well designed as the potatOS blasphemy detector.
gollark: I'm sure they can be trusted to determine that with no possibility whatsoever of mistakes!

Notes
  1. Hurricanes reaching Category 3 (wind speeds of 111 miles per hour (179 km/h)) or higher on the 5-level Saffir–Simpson wind speed scale are considered major hurricanes.[3]
  2. The figures for maximum sustained winds and position estimates are rounded to the nearest 5 units (knots, miles, or kilometers), following the convention used in the National Hurricane Center's operational products for each storm. All other units are rounded to the nearest digit.
