FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) — A busy hurricane season that saw the National Hurricane Center in Miami issue the first-ever tropical storm warning for the coast of California and hurricane warnings as far north as Nova Scotia is coming to a close Thursday night.
“The 2023 hurricane season does show that we can get impacts just about everywhere," said Michael Brennan, director of the hurricane center.
A year earlier, a strong storm surge during Hurricane Ian resulted in multiple deaths and significant destruction across southwest Florida.
She said she's more than relieved hurricane season is ending.
“So it's either hurricane season, or you're getting ready for the next hurricane season," he said.
