A third November storm, Sara, serves notice that a busy hurricane season isn't over yet

Tropical Storm Sara is the third named storm to emerge this November, serving up a reminder that the Atlantic hurricane season isn't quite over. Sara has dumped torrential rains in Central American since it made landfall Thursday on the Caribbean coast of Honduras. Scientists say we are seeing an unusually active end to the 2024 hurricane season that officially ends Nov. 30. The National Hurricane Center says November generally has one tropical storm every year or two and a hurricane roughly every other year. University of Miami hurricane researcher Brian McNoldy says 66 hurricanes have been recorded during November since 1851.
