The 2023 Atlantic Basin Hurricane Season has come to a close. Your WTOC First Alert Weather Team tracked 20 named storms in 2023, which ranks fourth for the most-named storms in a year since 1950.

Extremely high temperatures in the Coastal Empire and Lowcountry, something doctors say can be very dangerous if you’re not taking the right steps to keep yourself safe.
