Hurricane in November in Florida, something unusual
November is the last month of hurricane season, and tropical activity usually begins to taper off. However, the 2022 hurricane season has been postponed and nearly all of the impacting storms in the Atlantic this year have formed after August.
Florida has been exposed to tropical systems nine times in November over the past 170 years, a drop of about 5% in any given year.
Seven of those nine were from the Western Caribbean and the Gulf of Mexico. This makes this week’s development system, if consolidated and hit Florida, very rare.
At the moment, forecasts indicate that the frequency and intensity of rain will increase as the middle of the week approaches. It will become increasingly stormy, with dangerous marine conditions and a high risk of rip currents.
According to analysis by meteorologist John MoralesWinds and waves will combine with the full moon and rising sea levels, causing major coastal flooding. Communities like Fort Lauderdale, Miami Beach, Miami Shores, and neighborhoods near Biscayne Boulevard including Edgewater, Coconut Grove, Coral Gables and Florida Keys should prepare for flooding.
Flooding continues in Volusia County. In the Deltona area, residents also complain that they haven’t come to pick up much of the rubble.
