SUMMARY: There has been no tropical activity recently, marking the first such period since August 26. September and early October were notably busy, even after a quiet August, which typically sees more storms. So far this year, there have been 15 named storms, 10 hurricanes, and 4 major hurricanes, slightly below the forecasted range for named storms. Hurricane season lasts until the end of November, and historical data shows an average of one tropical storm or hurricane in November. Since 2000, there have been 18 hurricanes in this month. While further activity is possible, major hurricanes are less likely.

The 2024 Atlantic hurricane season has been active, with an above-average number of tropical storms and hurricanes. The season is calming down, but there is still more than a month to go before hurricane season is over.

SUMMARY: Mild and muggy conditions continue today with highs in the low 80s and scattered showers and storms across East Tennessee. A persistent southerly wind is drawing Gulf moisture, fueling daily rain chances. Tuesday and Thursday may bring slightly higher storm activity due to passing systems. By Friday, a ridge of high pressure is expected to build in, possibly leading to drier and warmer weather into next weekend. If temperatures reach 90°F by June 21, it will mark the latest first 90-degree day of the 21st century. Wednesday may feel especially hot, with mid-80s highs and heat index values in the mid-90s.

Warm and humid conditions will linger through next week with daily rain chances. Temperatures are expected to heat up by the end of the week into next weekend.
