2020-21 South Atlantic hurricane season (Hypercane's Version)

This marked the first official hurricane season for the South Atlantic Ocean in recorded history. The official bounds of the hurricane season in this basin runs from November 15 to May 31. The season was above-average in all areas as usually only 1-2 named storms formed before this season.

Subtropical Depression One-Q
On December 8 an area of low pressure exited the eastern coast of South America. While over the moderately warm sea surface temperatures of and lower than normal wind shear convection began to flare up near the center of circulation, with the Brazilian Navy beginning to take note of future development of the system. By December 10, the system became organized enough to be declared Subtropical depression One-Q while off the coast of South America and moving to the southeast. Later that day the depression began to move into an area of higher wind shear and decreasing sea surface temperatures which caused it to begin weakening. On December 11, the depression had degenerated to a remnant low while continuing to move to the southeast away from land and dissipated completely 12 hours later.

Tropical Storm Adon
During the afternoon of December 22 an area of low pressure exited the eastern coast of South America. While the low moved over warm sea surface temperatures of convection began to develop over the center of circulation with the Brazilian Navy taking note of the developing system. Early on December 23 the system became organized enough to become Tropical Depression Two-Q. The depression was moving into an area of decreasing wind shear and warmer sea surface temperatures and on December 24 the depression was upgraded to a tropical storm, earning the name Adon. The storm peaked 12 hours later at 45 mph and 1002 millibars before it began to move into unfavorable conditions. Adon soon weakened back to a tropical depression as the convection became displaced and the system weakened overall and would remain a depression for the next couple days as it went around a ridge of high pressure. As the system began to turn to the north and east it regained tropical storm intensity as convection re-established over the center of the storm. Over the next four days it moved towards southern Africa with it making landfall on December 31 at minimal tropical storm intensity. Adon quickly weakened and degenerated to a remnant low over Africa with the remnants moving back over the South Atlantic and dissipating shortly thereafter.
