We’ve been really lucky so far this hurricane season in Tampa Bay. In fact, all of Florida has been able to escape any threat of hurricane activity. We’re well into September and there hasn’t even been talk of a Tropical Storm. How long can our good luck last?

Denis Phillips from ABC Action News says we should be fine for at least a couple more weeks. He says there’s a lot of action in the Atlantic, but he sees no potential threats to Florida… or the entire United States for that matter. He says with the technology we have right now we can only look about 2 weeks ahead. But the good news is there’s no news until at least the end of September.

Don’t get too terribly comfortable with the lack of wild weather. We’re only about halfway through hurricane season. The 2022 Atlantic hurricane season officially began on June 1 and ends November 30, 2022.

Looking Back: It was 5 years ago this week we were dealing with Hurricane Irma.

Barbuda, which covers only 62 square miles, was nearly leveled when Hurricane Irma made landfall with 185mph winds on the night of September six. Only two days later, fearing Barbuda would be hit again by Hurricane Jose, the prime minister ordered an evacuation of all 1,800 residents of the island. Most are now still in shelters scattered around Barbuda's much larger sister island Antigua. (Photo by Spencer Platt/Getty Images)
