Three (3) Atlantic named storms were formed today Friday, September 18, 2020 – Wilfred, Alpha and Beta. The only other time on record that the Atlantic had 3 named storm formations on the same calendar day was August 15, 1893. So far, this hurricane season, there have been 23 named storms. First came Tropical Storm Wilfred in the Atlantic around 11 am, then Subtropical Storm Alpha near Portugal at 12:30 pm. Tropical Storm Beta, in the Gulf of Mexico, broke the record around 5 pm. Beta could become a hurricane while moving slowly over the Gulf of Mexico during the next few days, according to the National Hurricane Center.
