Exploring The Many Oddities Of Hurricane Alex In The Atlantic Ocean

A Hurricane Warning being issued in January…..? I warned of this last week in Forbes . It is mid-January, and there is a hurricane in the Atlantic Ocean. A hurricane? Wait, don’t we normally see the first hurricane in, ummmmmm, the summer? It is only the 2nd hurricane to form in January in the Atlantic basin. The first time on record was 1938. Back in 1955, we saw Hurricane Alice in January, but it actually formed in December 1954. At the time of writing, winds in Alex were sustained at 85 mph. This makes it the strongest January hurricane on record in January.
