Questions

Is there a hurricane right now?

No tropical storms or hurricanes were active at our last check (Oct 31, 5:50 AM EDT).

What is the next hurricane name?

The next names on the 2026 lists are Kyle in the Atlantic and Winnie in the eastern Pacific. A storm gets a name when it reaches tropical storm strength, 39 mph sustained winds.

When does hurricane season end?

The Atlantic season runs from June 1 to November 30, and the eastern Pacific from May 15 to November 30. Storms can form outside those dates, so keep your kit ready year-round if you live near the coast.

How do I prepare for a hurricane?

Know your evacuation zone, keep water (one gallon per person per day for several days), food, medicines, flashlights, batteries and a battery or hand-crank radio ready, and follow your local officials. Our checklist and kit builder below cover the rest.
