Miami's hurricane season began on June 1 and it will continue through the end of November. Since 1900 twenty-one major hurricanes have hit the Florida Peninsula, but most of them occurred during the first half of the 1900's. The weather in Miami is typically hot and humid during hurricane season but you can also get some fantastic hotel rates during that period.
