1968 WMHB Atlantic hurricane season (Cooper)

The 1968 Atlantic hurricane season was a well-below average Atlantic hurricane season that produced 8 named storms, 5 hurricanes, and no major hurricanes. The 1968 season is one of only three seasons in the satellite era, the others being 1972 and 1986, to not produce a major hurricane. The season officially began on June 1, 1968, and ended on November 30, 1968. These dates historically describe the period each year when most tropical cyclones form in the Atlantic basin and are adopted by convention.
