Re: How many in the basin at once?

August 31, 1995 - three hurricanes and one tropical storm all going at the same time in the Atlantic basin. I think that the three hurricanes at the same time was also a record - and that has now been tied. The hurricanes were Humberto, Iris and Luis and the tropical storm was Karen.
