The season produced 21 tropical cyclones, of which 19 intensified into tropical storms, 11 of which became hurricanes, and five became major hurricanes.[4][nb 2] The four most notable storms during the season were hurricanes Luis, Marilyn, Opal and Roxanne. Luis caused extensive damage in the northern Leeward Islands in excess of $2.5 billion (1995 USD).[4] Marilyn affected the same area a few days later, causing eight deaths and damages in excess of $2 billion in the U.S. Virgin Islands.[6] Opal was a strong hurricane that, after battering the Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico, cross the Gulf of Mexico and made landfall near Pensacola Beach, Florida. There were 27 hurricane-related deaths were reported in the Southeastern United States.[7] Roxanne caused widespread flooding and crop damage throughout much of the Yucatán Peninsula, and killed at least six people, due to its erratic movement.[8] Following the 1995 season, these four storm names were retired from reuse in the North Atlantic by the World Meteorological Organization.[9]
This timeline documents tropical cyclone formations, strengthening, weakening, landfalls, extratropical transitions, and dissipations during the season. It includes information that was not released throughout the season, meaning that data from post-storm reviews by the National Hurricane Center, such as a storm that was not initially warned upon, has been included.
By convention, meteorologists use one time zone when issuing forecasts and making observations: Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), and also use the 24-hour clock (where 00:00 = midnight UTC).[10] In this time line, all information is listed by UTC first with the respective local time included in parentheses.
