2200 Atlantic hurricane season

The 2200 Atlantic hurricane season was at the time, the most active season in recorded history (later surpassed by multiple seasons until 20,000). Out of the 100 depressions that formed, around 95 became tropical storms, 75+ became hurricanes, and 50+ became major hurricanes. A number of them reached Category 6 intensity or higher (known by then as supercanes); these excess ratings were introduced in the late 21st century due to the increasing intensity of tropical cyclones in response to climate change. The strongest hurricane of the season (so far) was Penelope, which became a 320 mph/784 mbar Category 8 supercane.

2200 was the most destructive and deadly season ever recorded in history, until later surpassed by 20,000 and several preceding years. Hurricane-vulnerable areas (especially the Lesser Antilles, Gulf Coast, East Coast, Florida, and Mexico) were virtually wiped out by all the hurricanes and supercanes. It made even 2100 look weak by comparison.

Climate change has become dangerously rampant by 2200, causing hurricane seasons to reach activity and intensity (total ACE) levels never before thought possible. After 2100, four other years in the 22nd century reached or surpassed 50 tropical depressions; these years were 2125, 2148, 2196, and 2199. Although 2125 fell a couple depressions short of 2100, 2148 was the year that 2100's activity record fell, seeing 65 depressions in total. 2196 saw a very similar amount of activity as 2100, while 2199 (as the precursor to this season) in turn beat 2148's record, seeing 79 depressions total. By 2200, climate change has increased summer and autumn sea surface temperatures in parts of the Atlantic (especially the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico) to a whopping 100+°F in La Niña years with wind shear and dry air being ridiculously low throughout the basin, creating the perfect conditions for an ultra-hyperactive season to occur. Although 2200 saw perhaps one of the strongest La Niñas in recorded history, the Eastern Pacific still saw a near-average hurricane season by today's standards and a few Atlantic crossovers were still able to thrive there.

Seasonal summary
The ultra-hyperactive season began with the formation of a few extremely early storms; Alejandro, Brittany, and Cody each formed before April. Cody became the strongest ever recorded in the month of March, the third earliest major hurricane on record (after two majors that formed in January, one in 2109 and the other in 2154), and the earliest Category 2+ landfall in the U.S. on record. It was the first storm of the season to cause enough impacts to lead to its retirement. April began with a weak and short-lived Desiree forming in the Main Development Region (MDR); the earliest MDR formation on record. The month later saw tropical storm Ethan (one of the earliest tropical systems to ever make landfall on the Gulf Coast) and subtropical depression Six.

At the end of April, Fatima formed and became the strongest storm to ever form in April, although the majority of its existence was in May. Fatima and Grant (the earliest C5 on record and the strongest ever recorded in May) led the major explosion in activity that would cement 2200 in the record books. As May progressed, an unprecedented amount of systems formed, including Jenna which broke Grant's very short-lived record as the strongest Atlantic system ever recorded in May. Jenna was the first "supercane" of the season (C6+, 200+ mph), and caused cataclysmic devastation to New England. A few more systems formed after Jenna concluding with Marvin's formation. In total, 8 depressions and 7 named storms formed in May 2200, and Fatima also existed in the month (making 9 total). This far out-beats the previous record holders, 2148 and 2199, which each had 5 systems exist in the month. In total, 15 depressions formed before June, an all-time record that no previous year has even rivaled (previous records - 9 in 2199 and 8 in 2148).

June saw the formation of another 7 named storms and 8 depressions, and numbers were basically the same as May as the hyperactivity continued. Most notable was Penelope, which became a Category 8 supercane and was the 2nd most intense Atlantic system in recorded history at the time. At the time of its peak, it was the fourth-strongest tropical cyclone ever recorded on Earth, only beaten by two Western Pacific super typhoons and a Caribbean supercane. Impacting the Florida Panhandle at Category 7 intensity and the Windward Islands at Category 5 intensity, the result was biblical devastation, described as if a "nuclear bomb had wiped out the entire Florida Panhandle". Other than Penelope, other notable June storms were Marvin (which formed in May), Oren, and Tori; each caused enough devastation to be retired. With 9 storms existing in June, 2200 narrowly beat out the previous all-time June record held by the previous year (2199), which had 8 storms exist in the month.

Storm names
The following names were used to name tropical cyclones this year. This is the same list used in the 2194 season, expect for Cody, Jenna, and Oren, which replaced Connor, Jessica, and Orville. The names Quigley, Ulmer, Xenia, Yuri and Zoe were all used in the 2198 list, as those names cycle every other year.
