Don was the first hurricane of the 2023 Atlantic hurricane season. Record hot ocean temperatures could turbocharge this hurricane season, according to scientists at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. NOAA scientists increased the chance that this year will be an above-normal Atlantic hurricane season to 60% on Thursday. In May, NOAA predicted a "near-normal" hurricane season with 30% likelihood of an above-normal Atlantic hurricane season. The revised estimate of 14 to 21 named storms puts this year close to last year when there were 14 named storms and relatively close to 2021, when there were 21 named storms.

July 22 (Reuters) - Tropical storm Don became a hurricane on Saturday, the U.S. National Hurricane Center (NHC) said in its latest advisory. Hurricane Don, which is moving in a northwest direction over the central Atlantic, is located about 775 kilometers (481.56 miles) south-southeast of Cape Race Newfoundland and packing maximum sustained winds of 75 miles per hour, the Miami-based forecaster said. Don is forecast to become a post-tropical cyclone Sunday night, NHC said, adding that steady weakening should begin Saturday night or early Sunday. The hurricane is expected to turn northeastward later tonight or early Sunday, and a northeastward to east-northeastward motion should continue until the system dissipates Monday night or early Tuesday, the forecaster said. The Miami-based forecaster did not provide any warnings or coastal watches for the hurricane.
