Timeline of the 2020 Atlantic hurricane season

The 2020 Atlantic hurricane season was the most active and the fifth-costliest Atlantic hurricane season on record. Additionally, the season was the fifth consecutive above-normal Atlantic hurricane season. The season officially began on June 1, 2020 and ended on November 30, 2020. These dates, adopted by convention, historically delimit the period each year when most Atlantic tropical systems form. However, storm formation is possible at any time of the year, as demonstrated in 2020 by the formation of the season's first two named storms, Tropical Storm Arthur, and Tropical Storm Bertha on May 16 and May 27, respectively. The final storm of the season, Hurricane Iota, dissipated on November 18.
