Season Activity
See also: Timeline of the 2007 Atlantic hurricane seasonOverall, the season's activity was reflected with a cumulative accumulated cyclone energy (ACE) rating of 74. ACE is, broadly speaking, a measure of the power of the hurricane multiplied by the length of time it existed, so storms that last a long time, as well as particularly strong hurricanes, have high ACEs. ACE is only calculated for full advisories on tropical systems at or exceeding 34 knots (39 mph, 63 km/h) or tropical storm strength. Subtropical cyclones, such as Andrea or the initial portions of Gabrielle, Jerry, and Olga, are excluded from the total.

Famous quotes containing the words season and/or activity:
“She, O, she is fallen
Into a pit of ink, that the wide sea
Hath drops too few to wash her clean again
And salt too little which may season give
To her foul tainted flesh!”

“Humour is by far the most significant activity of the human brain.”
