I'm guessing you mean the peak months (Aug/Sept/Oct) in the Atlantic...

In 1997 the entire month of August went by without so much as a tropical storm forming...and only one Tropical Depression.

That year we had only one hurricane in September....Erika.

In 1914, only one system formed and that was in September. So June, July, August, October and November all went without hurricanes. In fact, so did September as the system was a tropical storm.

Nope 1997 also had hurricane Bill - July 11 to 13, and Hurricane Danny - July 16 to 26 which actually made landfall 3 times... near Empire, Louisiana, Morgan, Alabama, and Mullet Point, Alabama.

Even after the reanalysis of the season, it remains the only system that formed that year.

1914 was the least active year ever in the Atlantic!
