MIAMI (Reuters) - The 2013 Atlantic hurricane season looks set to go
down as a big washout, marking the first time in 45 years that the
strongest storm to form was just a minor Category 1 hurricane.
There could still be a late surprise in the June 1-November 30
season, since the cyclone that mushroomed into Superstorm Sandy was just
revving up at this time last year.
But so far, at least, it has been one of the weakest seasons since
modern record-keeping began about half a century ago, U.S. weather
experts say. Apart from Tropical Storm Andrea, which soaked Florida
after moving ashore in the Panhandle in June, none of this year's
cyclones has made a U.S. landfall.
