End of September approaches without Atlantic hurricane

September will likely end without a hurricane in the Atlantic, with Tropical Storms Hanna and Fay not expected to strengthen. This would mark just the second September in the satellite era (1966) without a hurricane, despite being the climatological peak of the season. The hostile El Niño-driven winds have suppressed activity across the Atlantic this season, with the climate pattern expected to reach Super El Niño territory later this year.
