2001 WMHB Atlantic hurricane season (Cooper)

The 2001 Atlantic hurricane season was a very active Atlantic hurricane season, producing 16 named storms, 12 hurricanes, and 5 major hurricanes. The season officially began on June 1, 2001, and ended on November 30, 2001. These dates historically describe the period each year when most tropical cyclones form in the Atlantic basin and are adopted by convention. However, the season's last tropical cyclone, Hurricane Pablo, did not dissipate until December 4.
