2062 Great Lakes hurricane season

The 2062 Great Lakes hurricane season was the most active Great Lakes hurricane season on record, shattering numerous records, especially those set by the 2054 hurricane season. The impact of the season was widespread and catastrophic. Its storms caused an estimated 1,002 deaths and approximately $77.9 billion in damage, making it both the deadliest and costliest Great Lakes hurricane season on record.

Of the storms that made landfall (the majority of them did, as in most Great Lakes seasons), three of the season's six major hurricanes - Henry, Kat, and Lara - caused most of the season's damage and destruction.

The season's most devastating impacts were felt on Lake Huron's east coast, where Hurricane Lara produced a 15-foot storm surge and dumped up to 3 feet (1 m) of rain in some locations, causing catastrophic flooding.

The season officially began on June 15, 2018, and ended on October 15, 2018, but persisted into early November. A record 20 tropical depressions formed, out of which a record 16 became tropical storms, a record 12 hurricanes, and a record 6 major hurricanes. Out of the 6 major hurricanes, 4 became Category 4 storms, while 2 became Category 5 storms.
