The 2018 Atlantic hurricane season officially concludes on November 30, and will be remembered most for hurricanes Florence and Michael, which caused significant damage in the southeastern U.S. In total, the season produced 15 named storms, including eight hurricanes of which two were \u201cmajor\u201d (Category 3, 4 or 5). An average season has 12 named storms, six hurricanes, and three major hurricanes.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFrom the start of the 2018 hurricane season to its conclusion, NOAA and its dedicated staff of scientists, researchers, and forecasters have remained on the frontlines, saving countless American lives with critical and accurate data,\u201d said U.S. Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross. \u201cTime and again NOAA and NOAA resources have proven their value to the American people during the most urgent of circumstances.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Storm-by-storm forecasts from NOAA\u2019s National Hurricane Center were aided by the high-resolution imagery from NOAA\u2019s new GOES-East satellite (GOES-16), and the American Global Forecast System (GFS) model, which produced accurate forecasts of landfall location and timing for both hurricane Florence and Michael. NOAA\u2019s hurricane hunter aircraft flew more than 580 hours this season and provided valuable data in support of forecasting, research and emergency response.<\/p>
