The 2020 Atlantic hurricane season was the most active Atlantic hurricane season ever recorded, breaking the record of 2005. The season had a record-breaking 12 storms that hit the U.S, with many making landfall in Louisiana. The season had had thirty-one tropical or subtropical cyclones, thirty named storms, thirteen hurricanes, and six major hurricanes. It had over twenty tropical storms that broke formation date records. The season happened during the COVID-19 pandemic, making it harder to evacuate and give help to people who needed it. The season ended with a Category 5 hurricane, continuing the 4 year streak of Category 5 hurricanes in the Atlantic after Matthew (2016), Irma (2017), Michael (2018) and Dorian (2019).
