The 1993 Atlantic hurricane season was a below average, yet deadly Atlantic hurricane season, mainly due to Tropical Storm Bret and Hurricane Gert. The season produced ten tropical cyclones, eight tropical storms, four hurricanes, and one major hurricane. It officially started on June 1 and ended on November 30, dates which conventionally delimit the period during which most tropical cyclones form in the Atlantic Ocean. The first tropical cyclone, Tropical Depression One, developed on May 31, while the final storm, Tropical Depression Ten, dissipated on September 30, well before the average dissipation date of a season's last tropical cyclone; this represented the earliest end to the hurricane season in ten years. 8 storms, 4 hurricanes, 1 major hurricanes (Category 3+). Strongest: Emily (115 mph). Accumulated cyclone energy ≈ 38. Wiki link
