ANIMATION: [1]

The 2025 Atlantic hurricane season was the most active season since 2005 featuring 20 named storms, of which 12 became hurricanes and 7 became major hurricanes. It was also a costly one, with all the storms of this season inflicting around $100.63 billion (USD). The season officially began on June 1, 2025, and ended on November 30, 2025. These dates historically describe the period each year when most tropical cyclones form in the Atlantic basin and are adopted by convention. The first storm of the season, Andrea, formed off-season on May 8, while the last storm, Tropical Storm Van, dissipated on December 17.

Tropical storm (NHC)
Andrea sim 2025 Andrea track 2025
DurationMay 8 – May 9
Peak intensity40 mph (65 km/h) (1-min) 1004 mbar (hPa)

A non-tropical low was first noted a couple hundred or so miles southwest of Newfoundland, gradually moving towards the west-southwest with no change of organization. The NHC first monitored the system for potential development for the next 7 days on May 2. Then on May 6, it began to slightly organize over cold waters. A reconnaissance flight mission reported a center of circulation inside the storm and convection was well-deepened and it was designated as Subtropical Depression One on May 8 at 0000 UTC while turning to the northwest. The depression gradually organized and at 1200 UTC, it became Subtropical Storm Andrea and 6 hours later, it became fully tropical. The storm remained quite disorganized throughout its lifespan, peaking with sustained winds of up to 40 mph (65 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 1004 mbar (hPa) before weakening to a tropical depression on May 9 at 0600 UTC. 6 hours later, it made landfall over Nova Scotia before becoming post-tropical a few hours later.

They will be replaced with Jack, Kendra, Leo, Nathan, and Rhonda respectively for the 2031 season.

Season effects[]

This is a table of all the storms that have formed in the 2025 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. Potential tropical cyclones are not included in this table.
