Although hurricanes are naturally unpredictable, they have been observed to be more common at certain times of the year. For the Caribbean, the hurricane season usually starts in June and lasts until November. This season is further divided between the specific areas of the region. For instance, the Eastern Caribbean, as well as the U.S. East Coast, experiences more hurricanes between August and September, while the Western Caribbean has more hurricanes from September until early November.

Furthermore, the hurricanes on the Eastern Caribbean tend to be stronger compared to the ones that happen in the south.

People can expect a typical hurricane season to have an average of eight to eleven tropical storms, but only five to seven of these would be considered as full-fledged hurricanes. It’s also important to note that hurricanes don’t always reach land.
