2010 Hurricane Season in the Books
It was an above-average Atlantic hurricane season...in fact it tied 1995 as the third most active year ever. Thankfully only two storms made landfall in the United States.
Of course, one of those storms was Tropical Storm Hermine, which brought record rainfall to North Texas, along with tornadoes back in early September.
Here's how the season compared to the predictions made by different forecast groups:
