The 1909 Atlantic hurricane season was a destructive year with all but one of the 13 known tropical cyclones impacting land. Collectively, these storms killed at least 4,673 people and caused more than US$77.3 million in damage. Haiti, Mexico, and the United States were especially hard-hit, each seeing hundreds to thousands of fatalities. In July, a Category 3 hurricane struck Texas, killing 41 people. Another major hurricane in August inflicted catastrophic damage in and around Monterrey, Mexico, and was one of the deadliest on record in the Atlantic hurricane basin, killing an estimated 4,000 people in the country. The season's third major hurricane struck Cuba and Louisiana in September, killing an estimated 400 people. In October, the year's final major hurricane caused significant damage in western Cuba and southern Florida. The season ended with a Category 2 hurricane that produced prolific rainfall across the Greater Antilles, killing at least 198 people.
This destructive early 20th century season has been ready for nominating for a few years, with all of the articles being up to par. This was a collective effort between 12george1, TheAustinMan, and myself. --~ Cyclonebiskit ( chat) 20:06, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
