The Atlantic hurricane season has been less active than usual, but the risk of severe impacts remains. The season has seen only one major hurricane, Isaias, which reached Category 3 strength with winds of 120 mph (193 km/h). While the reduced number of storms is attributed to factors like increased vertical wind shear and dry air, the potential for dangerous winds, storm surges, and flooding persists. Residents in hurricane-prone areas should remain vigilant, as even a single storm can lead to widespread damage and power outages.
