The Atlantic basin has reached the eve of its statistically busiest date of the year with no tropical cyclones on the map, and not one hurricane recorded all season, while emergency managers in Hawaii shift from storm response to damage assessment after Hurricane Lowell swept past the state's western islands. The National Hurricane Center reported no Atlantic tropical cyclones in its Tuesday morning tropical weather outlook, issued at 8 a.m. EDT, and did not expect tropical development anywhere in the basin over the following seven days.
