[2] Due to increased activity over the following decades, the official end of the hurricane season was shifted to November 30.

At least $600,000 was lost in damages dealt to the citrus industry and several maritime incidents resulted in over 55 fatalities.

[2] The season's activity was reflected with an accumulated cyclone energy (ACE) rating of 7,[3] one of the lowest totals ever and far below the 1921–1930 average of 76.6.

[5] Around 0000 UTC the next day, the system was classified as a modern-day tropical depression with sustained winds estimated at 30 mph (48 km/h).

Roughly 18 hours later, the depression strengthened into a tropical storm, the first of the season while located to the north-northeast of the Bahamas.

[6] Several hours later, a ship recorded a pressure of 1010 mbar (hPa) while located in the vicinity of the system.

[6] Although the storm remained over water for the duration of its existence, the outer reaches of the system brought rain and light winds to Georgia, Florida, and the Carolinas.

[8] The third storm of the season was first identified as tropical depression off the northwestern coast of the Yucatan Peninsula early on September 6.

[6] Around 9 pm CST (0300 UTC on September 7) that night, storm warnings were issued for areas between Brownsville and Corpus Christi, Texas.

[2] The storm made landfall in northern Mexico, just south of the Texas border,[6] shortly after the warnings were extended.

[6] No known damage was caused as a result of this storm and storm-force winds were only recorded over a small area on the Texas coastline.

The extratropical cyclone emerged over the eastern Atlantic several hours later and regained hurricane-force winds.

[6] A strong area of high pressure located over the Canadian Maritimes caused the system to turn east-southeastward.

[6] The remnants of the storm continued eastward, passing several hundred miles north of Bermuda later that day.

Trees, power lines, and telegraph wires were uprooted or knocked down by high winds along the Suwannee River.

A tug boat sank off the coast of Mobile, Alabama, while towing a lumber barge, the fate of the crew is unknown.
