The 2020 Atlantic usercane season is a currently active usercane season. It officially started on January 1, 2020 and will end on December 31, 2020. These dates historically describe the period each year when most tropical usercyclones form in the Atlantic basin and are adopted by convention. The season's first storm, Tropical Userstorm Eagle, developed on January 3.

Ahead of and during the season, several national meteorological services and scientific agencies forecast how many named userstorms, usercanes, and major usercanes (Category 3 or higher on the Saffir-Simpson scale) will form during a season. These agencies include the National Usercane Center (NUC), Bob Nekaro Weather Center (BNWC), Hypercane's Meteorological Center (HMC), Porygonal Weather Service (PWS), Cooper Meteorological Agency (CMA), and many others.

The first prediction was made by the FCXGCTC on December 31st, 2019 just before the start of the season. It was later followed by 2 more predictions, from the HSMC, IMD, and the SHMC. On January 1, 2020, the NUC issued its first seasonal forecast, calling for 20 to 25 named storms, 1 to 3 usercanes, and 0 to 1 major usercanes. That same day, the OSM (OCC) predicted a total of 21–29 named storms, 2–6 usercanes, and 0–2 major usercanes. Later on January 1st, the Hurricane Lucas Meteorological Agency (HLMA) issued its first usercane forecast, calling for 22–26 named storms, 1–4 usercanes, and 0–2 major usercanes. The next day, the WHC and the FMC released their usercane forecasts. The LCA would release their first forecast for the season calling for 23-30 named userstorms, 1-5 usercanes and 0-2 major usercanes, on January 4th, along with WSHA predicting 33-45 userstorms, 2-4 usercanes and 0-2 major usercanes to form.

Season effects

This is a table of all the userstorms that have formed in the 2020 Atlantic hurricane season. It includes their duration, names, landfall(s), denoted in parentheses, damages, and death totals. Deaths in parentheses are additional and indirect (an example of an indirect death would be a traffic accident), but were still related to that storm. Damage and deaths include totals while the storm was extratropical, a tropical wave, or a low, and all the damage figures are in USD.
