How many named hurricanes formed during the 1990 season?
1990 Atlantic hurricane season
Hurricane Josephine intensified slightly more on October 5, attained its peak intensity later that day, with maximum sustained winds of 85mph (140km/h) and a minimum barometric pressure of 980mbar (hPa; 28.94inHg). A large mid-latitude storm began developing on October 5, and Hurricane Josephine accelerated around the east periphery on the system. Josephine weakened back to a tropical storm early on October 6, while moving to the north of the mid-latitude system. After tracking near the mid-latitude cyclone, Tropical Storm Josephine transitioned into an extratropical storm on October 6 before being absorbed by it. The mid-latitude cyclone later developed into Hurricane Lili.[44][45]
