Record-Breaking 30th Named Storm Forms

Tropical Storm Iota — the record breaking 30th named storm of the 2020 Atlantic Hurricane Season – is “not a threat to Bermuda,” the Bermuda Weather Service said, with its closest point of approach to Bermuda within 72 hours having passed.

This season has been so active that meteorologists have resorted to using names from the Greek alphabet after the 21-name list that was established by the World Meteorological Organization for the hurricane season was exhausted.
