Summary

[edit]
Description
English: On January 14, 2016, the National Hurricane Center upgraded subtropical storm Alex to hurricane strength. This rare storm was not only the first named storm for the 2016 calendar year, but was also the first named storm to form in the Atlantic in January since 1978, the first January-born hurricane since 1938, and just the fourth known storm to arrive in the month of January since records began in 1851. This image was taken by the NOAA/NASA Suomi NPP satellite on January 13, 2016, only hours before the storm was declared a hurricane. Credit: NOAA/NASA
