When do hurricanes occur in Florida?
Once again, hurricanes don’t “HAPPEN”, they “DEVELOP” from low pressure areas. The hurricane season officially starts June 1 and ends December 1, but those dates were chosen because that is when hurricanes are most likely to develop, they don’t just magically start and end on those dates like turning a light on and off. When I was a child, we had a tropical storm (one step below a hurricane) cross over Miami in February. The peak of the season is usually from late August to early November.
