== Seasonal Summary ==
The '''1979 Atlantic Hurricane Season''' was a record-breaking and extremely devastating series. This season is the first of an ongoing series of HA Animations' HELL Series, in which tropical cyclone seasons are reimagined to be far more devastating while also being loosely based on the real-world counterpart of the season. This series begins in 1979, the beginning of the usage of male-female alternating lists, which is considered the beginning of the "modern" Atlantic Naming Lists.
The 1979 Atlantic Hurricane Season would begin on June 12, with Hurricane Ana, which made several landfalls in the Caribbean and the Southeastern United States. Ana would make an exceptionally rare Georgia landfall, making landfall in Savannah, Georgia at peak intensity. Shortly after, Bob would form in the far western Tropical Atlantic. Bob would become a category two hurricane in the Eastern Caribbean, and would make landfall in Hispaniola as a category one storm before going out to sea for the remainder of its life. In early July, Tropical Storm Claudette, Hurricane David, and Tropical Storm Elena would form, with Claudette remaining mainly out to sea, with the exception of a tropical storm landfall in Bermuda. David and Elena would experience a Fujiwara Interaction, in which David absorbed Elena shortly after Elena made landfall in Extreme Southern South Carolina. Hurricane David would peak as a category two hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico, before making landfall near Pensacola, Florida on July 13th.

Seasonal Summary

The 1979 Atlantic Hurricane Season was a record-breaking and extremely devastating series. This season is the first of an ongoing series of HA Animations' HELL Series, in which tropical cyclone seasons are reimagined to be far more devastating while also being loosely based on the real-world counterpart of the season. This series begins in 1979, the beginning of the usage of male-female alternating lists, which is considered the beginning of the "modern" Atlantic Naming Lists.


The 1979 Atlantic Hurricane Season would begin on June 12, with Hurricane Ana, which made several landfalls in the Caribbean and the Southeastern United States. Ana would make an exceptionally rare Georgia landfall, making landfall in Savannah, Georgia at peak intensity. Shortly after, Bob would form in the far western Tropical Atlantic. Bob would become a category two hurricane in the Eastern Caribbean, and would make landfall in Hispaniola as a category one storm before going out to sea for the remainder of its life. In early July, Tropical Storm Claudette, Hurricane David, and Tropical Storm Elena would form, with Claudette remaining mainly out to sea, with the exception of a tropical storm landfall in Bermuda. David and Elena would experience a Fujiwara Interaction, in which David absorbed Elena shortly after Elena made landfall in Extreme Southern South Carolina. Hurricane David would peak as a category two hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico, before making landfall near Pensacola, Florida on July 13th.
