When is hurricane season? June 1 to Nov. 30, 2026. Parts of Florida Panhandle still recovering from Category 2 Hurricane Isaias after Destin landfall.
The disturbance, located a few hundred miles west of the Cabo Verde Islands, was producing a large but disorganized area of showers and thunderstorms. The storms extended into the western Cabo Verde Islands, National Hurricane Center forecaster Andrew Hagen said. There is currently no threat to Louisiana.
Footage has been shared on social media showing the devastation caused by Isaias, which crashed into the Florida coast as a Category 2 hurricane on Friday, though it has since weakened to a post-tropical cyclone according to the National Hurricane Center (NHC).
Sustained winds are considered “damaging” when they reach 50 knots, or 58 m.p.h., and can start to break tree limbs and tear off roof shingles. More widespread damage occurs as winds reach and exceed hurricane force, which is 74 m.p.h.
