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. | |||
