[nb 1] However, tropical cyclones that did not approach populated areas or shipping lanes, especially if they were relatively weak and of short duration, may have remained undetected.

The San Ciprian hurricane also wreaked havoc on the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, and the Dominican Republic in late September, with damage totaling approximately $35.8 million and the death toll reaching 272.

Moving slowly northeast, the system became a tropical storm the next day and gradually strengthened before making landfall just west of Baní in the Dominican Republic's modern-day Peravia Province with winds of 45 mph (72 km/h) on May 7.

Strengthening slightly further, the compact hurricane attained its peak intensity with maximum sustained winds estimated at 150 mph (240 km/h) and a minimum barometric pressure of 935 mbar (27.6 inHg) shortly before making landfall near Freeport, Texas, at 04:00 UTC on August 13.

Angleton, Freeport, and Galveston suffered extensive wind damage, while the inland towns of Brazoria, West Columbia, Damon and Needville, all in the path of the eye, were also devastated.

The storm made landfall on the north end of Key Largo, Florida, with sustained winds of 65 mph (105 km/h) around 04:00 UTC on August 30, before striking the mainland south of Homestead.

[2] At the storm's landfall in southern Florida, heavy rains and strong winds caused extensive damage to crops, particularly to avocado and citrus.

[12] As the strengthening hurricane moved northwestwards through the Gulf of Mexico, it generated strong surf that caused severe damage to coastal areas across western Florida,[2][13] before making its second landfall, where it produced hurricane-force winds across a wide swath of the coast.

In and around Pensacola, the hurricane caused about $100,000 in damage, including impacts to buildings, homes, waterfront properties, power lines, and cotton crops.

The storm continued weakening as it accelerated northeastward, bypassing New England before becoming extratropical about 150 mi (240 km) south of Cape Sable Island on September 9.

[19] On September 4, an area of low pressure developed from a stationary front approximately 740 mi (1,190 km) south-southeast of Cape Race, Newfoundland.

Moving slowly northwards, the storm reached its peak intensity with maximum sustained winds of 60 mph (95 km/h) while located south of the Mississippi River Delta.

[2] There were scattered reports of wind damage across Atlantic Canada, including the toppling of telephone and electrical wires, and the deroofing of buildings and homes.

[22] On September 16, a tropical storm with winds of 40 mph (64 km/h) developed out of a frontal boundary about 860 mi (1,385 km) southwest of the northwesternmost islands of the Azores.

[2] Moving quickly towards the north-northeast, the depression intensified to a tropical storm and reached peak intensity with maximum sustained winds of 65 mph (105 km/h) and a minimum barometric pressure of 998 mbar (29.5 inHg) early the next day.

The storm quickly intensified as it moved towards the west due to a nearby high pressure system,[2] reaching hurricane strength at 12:00 UTC that day.

[32][33] A tropical storm was first identified in the eastern Atlantic on September 28 as a small, compact system,[2] with winds of 40 mph (64 km/h) and a minimum pressure of 1,004 mbar (29.6 inHg).

Initially situated roughly 800 mi (1,285 km) south-southeast of Cape Race, Newfoundland, the storm moved southeastward and intensified slightly to peak with maximum sustained winds of 45 mph (72 km/h).

The storm continued to intensify as it moved towards the Yucatán Peninsula, reaching peak intensity late on October 9, with maximum sustained wind speeds of 70 mph (110 km/h).

[35] In addition heavy rains caused rivers to exceed flood stage, particularly east of where the storm made landfall,[11] isolating homes and interrupting traffic.

The storm also brought widespread rainfall across the South Atlantic states through orographic lift, peaking at 9.3 in (240 mm) in Rock House, North Carolina.

[2] The storm weakened as it progressed farther northward and curved toward the northeast, before transitioning into an extratropical cyclone by 0600 UTC on October 12 approximately 205 mi (330 km) southeast of Sable Island.

[2] The disturbance intensified to tropical storm strength at 0000 UTC on October 18 about 1,220 mi (1,965 km) northwest of the westernmost islands of Cabo Verde,[3] after losing baroclinity.

Moving nearly due west, the depression brushed Martinique on October 31, shortly before entering the Caribbean and intensifying into a tropical storm.

[5] The cyclone struck Camagüey Province in Cuba on November 9 as a Category 4 hurricane with winds of 150 mph (240 km/h) and a barometric pressure of 918 mb (27.11 inHg).

On November 13, the cyclone fell to tropical storm intensity and became extratropical several hours later about 530 mi (855 km) southeast of Cape Race, Newfoundland.

[42] In Cuba, a massive storm surge measuring 21 ft (6.5 m) in height inundated Santa Cruz del Sur in Camagüey Province.

Out of the approximately 4,800 residents,[43] an estimated 2,870 people in Santa Cruz del Sur were killed and less than 10 percent of the town's population was uninjured.

[2] A tropical storm was first identified in the Central Atlantic about 785 mi (1,265 km) east of Barbados at 0600 UTC on November 3,[3] with ships reporting moderate gales in its vicinity.

Early on November 10, the system transitioned into an extratropical cyclone about 210 mi (340 km) southwest of the northwesternmost islands of the Azores, while still maintaining hurricane-force winds.
