Hurricane Season Begins June 1

1 Jun 2026 | MCIEAST Communication Strategy & Operations Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune

The Atlantic Hurricane Season runs annually from June 1 to November 30. While National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) predicts below-normal hurricane activity in the Atlantic basin this year, it only takes one storm to cause significant damage to your home and property. Eastern North Carolina typically sees an increase in storms later in the summer, but now is the time to prepare. For information on how to prepare and what to pack in your emergency kit, visit the following resources:

The MCB Camp Lejeune and MCAS New River areas will be in Topical Cyclone Condition V (TCC V) until November 30 which indicates the potential for the occurrence of destructive weather is elevated, but no specific system threatens the area.
