The 2024 Atlantic Hurricane Season has come to an end after 18 storms, two Category 5 hurricanes, hundreds of fatalities and more than one hundred billion dollars in damage.

This is the last week of a truly shitty Atlantic hurricane season. It was record-breaking. People are still recovering. Misinformation managed to make things even worse. Now, we get a six-month-ish break before it starts over again — perhaps with fewer federal resources to respond in the US.

So far, the 2024 season has produced 18 named storms, 11 of which developed into hurricanes, including five major hurricanes at Category 3 or greater.

We've never had more reason to celebrate the end of hurricane season than we do this year. Why it matters: With this hellish season coming to a close on Saturday, several parties are happening around Tampa Bay to say good riddance.
