The 1967 Atlantic hurricane season was a near normal hurricane season, featuring 11 depressions, 10 storms, 6 hurricanes, and 2 major hurricanes. It was the first Atlantic hurricane season to be included in the satellite era. The first depression formed on May 31st, and the final storm became non tropical on October 30. Hurricane Debra, the strongest storm of the season, was also the most damaging, causing 302 deaths and $505 million in damage (1967 USD) along its path through the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico. Debra formed on September 6th and soon after crossed into the Caribbean Sea. Widespread evacuations occurred along the southern coast of the Dominican Republic as the hurricane was expected to directly impact, however it eventually missed. After brushing the south coast of Hispaniola, the hurricane weakened and re-intensified, striking the Yucatán Peninsula and later Texas at its peak intensity, as a category 5 hurricane.
Tropical Storms Arlene, Cindy, Ginger, and Irene, and Hurricanes Beulah, Debra, Flora, and Janice originated from tropical waves moving off of Cabo Verde, and did not cause significant impacts on land. Tropical Depression Two and Hurricane Edith originated from non tropical cyclones, and both caused insignificant impacts to the United States Eastern Seaboard. Finally, hurricane Helena originated from a Caribbean area of low pressure, striking Mexico at peak intensity as a category 2 hurricane. Overall, the storms of 1967 caused $513 million (1967 USD) in damages, and a total of 317 reported deaths, a majority of both figures originating from Debra.
The following names were used for named storms (tropical storms and hurricanes) that formed in the North Atlantic in 1967. No storm names were used for the first time in 1967. At the end of the season, the name Debra was retired and replaced with Darlene in 1971. Names that were not assigned are marked in gray.
