Continental United States hurricane strikes 1950–2022. The list of United States hurricanes includes all tropical cyclones officially recorded to have produced sustained winds of greater than 74 mph (119 km/h) in the United States, which is the minimum threshold for hurricane intensity.
Number of hurricanes by Saffir-Simpson Category to strike the mainland U.S. each decade. Note: The number and intensities of U.S. hurricane is underestimated here before 1901 because of the sparsely populated U.S. coastline, particularly along part of Florida, Louisiana, and Texas.

Major Hurricanes = Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale 3, 4, or 5 Original Data is from The Deadliest, Costliest, and Most Intense United States Hurricanes 1900-2000
Before the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic coasts became settled, hurricanes may have been underestimated in their intensity or missed completely for small-sized systems (i.e., 2004's Hurricane Charley). The following list provides estimated dates when accurate tropical cyclone records began for specified regions of the United States based upon U.S ...
The periodical Monthly Weather Review - articles used included annual hurricane season summaries published by the National Hurricane Center, along with season summaries and individual storm articles written in the years before the National Hurricane Center was created.
The National Hurricane Center's Tropical Cyclone Reports (formerly called Preliminary Reports) contain comprehensive information on each storm, including synoptic history, meteorological statistics, casualties and damages, and the post-analysis best track (six-hourly positions and intensities).
Chronological List of All Continental United States Hurricanes: 1851-2010. (Revised in August 2011 with reanalysis updates primarily for the period of 1851-1930. Note that from 1931 through 1979, no official wind speed estimates are currently available.)
These visualizations show hurricane tracks for Atlantic hurricane seasons 1900 through 2023. Tracks are shown over time. Ten years worth of tracks are shown at once with older tracks within the ten year window more transparent.
A total of 14 formed over the Atlantic basin - the most since 2005, the year of Hurricane Katrina. Six of those were major hurricanes, including Hurricane Laura, Hurricane Eta and Hurricane Iota.
